Weekend Wrap-Up

Here's what we've been up to!

Last week we were finally able to bring guests to Briarwood.  Kase and Huston had a blast!

Kase has also been staying busy with baseball. He and Kent are having a lot of fun with this team!

We made a trip to Adventureland with friends.  

They were so excited about their prizes! Also excited because I usually never let them play those carnival games but this one only cost a quarter.  Sometimes it's the little things, you know?

It wasn't busy at all at the water park! 

We hosted Kael's friends' family for a barbecue here on Friday night.  We were so happy the rain held off! 

Saturday we spent at my grandpa's farm pond with my family.  Kase was just over the moon about catching this fish!

Kael was the first to hop in and swim!

Kent was thrilled to catch a fish from his kayak.

Kase and Brooklyn had fun jumping off the dock together. 

Some of the cousin crew! Kylee was babysitting one of Kase's friends (who had a pool- which she was excited about). 

 Kase is getting braver and more used to having dogs around! 

The boys had a great time catching tadpoles and frogs.  

I had fun in my kayak ferrying the kids to and from the floating dock.

It was such a great day! When we got home, Kylee's friend who moved to Omaha about a month ago surprised her and came to hang out! She was so happy and it was so sweet to see them together again.

Later that night Kase got invited to Urban Air with his friend and then also stayed over at his house.  I wasn't sure if he would want to sleep over (he is a little bit of a homebody), but he stayed all night and had a great time.  Meanwhile, we went out to celebrate our friend's birthday and Kael and Kylee hung out at home together.  They went on a bike ride, jumped on the trampoline and we DoorDashed them dinner from Cancun so they were thrilled!

Sunday Kent and I went for a long walk then he went with his brothers and mom to visit Grandma Doe. Later that afternoon Kent and Kylee went to an open house then we went to the Briarwood pool. Later we went boating- Kent's brother just bought a boat so we had fun with them! Then Kael had a sleepover at his friend's house and the rest of us went golfing.  Fun night! Kylee ended the evening with skateboarding around the neighborhood. A great, busy weekend. 

Full disclosure: also over the weekend we found a tick on Kase after he fished by Centennial, Kael tried to do a flip of the front of the boat and hit his head, and I wrecked my bike by getting it caught in the crack between the sidewalk and the grass. So...all was totally fine but not as perfect and fun as it seems from the outside. 

Hope you all had a happy, safe weekend!
