We have enjoyed a calmer pace this last week here at the house. Most of our things are unpacked and we are really starting to feel like this is home. The boys made good use of the boxes before we recycled most of them.
Swim lessons were a success! Isaac is now slightly more comfortable putting his head in the water most of the way.
His teacher, Miss Makayla, even convinced him to go in the deep diving pool with her!
We can now say with confidence that Sam can swim by himself. He even dove off the diving board in the deeper pool!
Most days after swim lessons ended like this, with Isaac passed out on the floor somewhere.
On Friday, we had a wild storm. The wind and hail were intense and we lost power for a few hours.
The plants and trees took some major hits from the hail, fortunately I think everything will recover.
It was a lot of hail! But, we were very lucky to have little to no damage anywhere.
On Saturday, Sam awoke to a new year of being 7!!!
He opened some gifts right away. He really enjoyed a fidget spinner from us, a stuffed minecraft spider from Isaac, and a pokeball toy from Noah.
This year's cake: Roblox (a video game that he enjoys)!
We had quite the crowd here for his birthday/our housewarming party!
He got some amazing gifts, including these Thumper "skinny pants" from Aunt Michelle!
The Townsends shut it down with some feats of strength!
And, as usual, the kids stayed up WAY too late but had a blast. It was a great party in our new home!
The next day was spent recovering and enjoying the wonderful gifts!
Isaac enjoyed his solo sleepover with Bamma and Bampa this week, they did some light gardening...
... and some heavy snacking! What more could a boy want?!
We had the Worsts over to play and we tried out Sam's new stomp rocket. Awesome!
Soon, we head off to California to visit some friends. Cannot wait!
