Week 5 means we’re half way through summer. So only 328 weeks to go. Kidding. We’re at the point when time is speeding up.
We kicked-off the week with another pool party at Aunt Anna’s. We then hosted a “chopped”-style cooking challenge with friends. Then we ended on a spendy shopping trip to Urban Outfitters just in time for the New Kids on the Block concert downtown. (Luckily we had help with hair and makeup from Baya.)
How’d we end up at the Mix Tape Tour concert featuring all the 90s favorites? Well, we got tickets last minute courtesy of Aunt Molly and Uncle Mike. The huge surprise was getting invited into their friend’s fancy suite with catered food, a full bar, and sparkly clean, convenient bathroom. Not exactly a normal concert experience for Marin- a first-timer! It’d be like getting bumped up to first class on your first-ever plane ride. It’s going to be hard to top this!
Also in the Week 5 mix where a bunch of sports and camps. For example, Linc finished up 3 “totally epic” weeks of travel day camp. Each day they get on a little bus and go to some super fun, interesting activity— water park, laser tag, the aquarium, etc. The final week was an outdoor adventure camp with a ropes course, fishing, paddling, outdoor survival skills (for 8-year-olds!?), and hiking. You can imagine which activity got his only ‘not fun’ rating.
Our video highlights are below. Thanks for watching!
PS- Regular blog readers might like to know that Brian’s photography skills have NOT improved. I mean, seriously. We’re supposed to be the focus of this picture, right? Why did he need to get the open utility room door and trash can!!!???
