Life Lately - June

I am kind of sad today is the last day of June because summer is flying by. How are we already half way through summer?! This has been a busy month full of summer time fun so here is our photo dump for the month starting with me! I don't go out very often with my girl friends because we are all so busy but this month we went to flamingo bingo & had so much fun:

Moving on to Bryan, we celebrated him for Father's Day weekend. We always drop the girls off at camp on Father's Day so instead we celebrated the day before. We went to Andretti's last year & had a few races left on our account, so we started our day there:

We walked around Grandscape for a while then ended up at Popstroke:

I was shocked how gluten friendly they were, so we had a late lunch/early dinner here & then we had fun playing putt putt on the course:

We ended the night at the Baked Bear getting ice cream sandwiches - it really was a fun day together!

When the girls got home from camp, their cousin from Colorado was here so we met them at a new place in town called Fritz Adventure. The girls had been so excited to come try it & they all loved it:

Thank you Grammy & Grandpa for spoiling them with such a fun day together!

I realize again now that I am looking at pictures, I hardly have any documentation of Sadie, but I have a ton of Sophie! Sadie had big news this summer because one of her best friends moved to Wales last summer & it was hard to tell her goodbye, but her family moved back this summer! These 2 picked right back up like she wasn't even gone:

We've also volunteered a lot this month. She has to have at least 15 hours a year for NCL & we already met her goal! We try to do as much as we can in the summer because we are too busy during the school year. We have spent a lot of time at Watermere & being a Buddy for the Miracle League & we love them both:

Sophie has had a lot of play dates, pool parties & sleepovers. That girl is super social!

She is taking a tumbling & jumping private lesson every week trying to get her ready for middle school cheer try outs and she is loving it:

She also joined KLife with Sadie since she is old enough. They have Popsicles at the Playground every Monday night & bible study every Wednesday afternoon - they both love it:

Finally, Sophie went to a birthday party this weekend at the mall where they went on a scavenger hunt - she had so much fun:

Those last 2 pictures - she really is sassy!

Parent Camp 2025, Grand Cayman

This is the 5th year both of the girls have been together at camp, so Bryan & I have a week to sneak off just the two of us. Last year we went to the Northeast & visited Cape Cod while Bryan was on a work trip, but this year we snuck off to his happy place - Grand Cayman! I think was our 6th time visiting the island & we have always stayed at the same resort. We love the beach, the people & the familiarity of being there & visiting our favorite restaurants. I didn't take many pictures but here are a few from our get away. 

We dropped the girls off on Sunday then we flew out Monday morning. We literally went straight to the beach, ordered chips & dip with a few tropical drinks & stayed until sunset:

We didn't even shower or go out that night. We ordered fried rice & sushi from our favorite Japanese restaurant at the hotel & grabbed it to go on the way up to our room. We had a very lazy night in watching Netflix & eating take out after the sunset. It was the best way to start our trip!

Then it was 4 days of the exact same thing - we worked out every morning, walked to brunch then spent our day at the beach. It literally never gets old walking out the hotel and seeing this view:

The water temperature was perfect & we had fantastic weather while we were there. We literally never made it to the pool because the beach was so perfect! Although since we always got down there later, we always got seats on the 2nd row, but I still wouldn't complain about our view:

Bryan had to work the first day or two but then he was able to relax & wind down:

I was on my device also, but it was for enjoyment & not work related:

We had a lot of tropical drinks & snacks every day - the chips & dips were amazing, popsicles, fresh pineapple, frozen grapes - I love it all!

We did cleanup & go to dinner every night (after we were lazy the first night!) and we went to a few of our favorite places & one new one, which we loved!

We discovered a gf/df chocolate mousse cake at our hotel that I loved & we may have stopped by the hotel bar a few nights to get it on our way back to our room. 

Our final night there we stayed at the beach as long as we could to enjoy our last sunset. It never gets old watching the sun go down:

Just a boy in his happy place:

Goodnight until next time!
