Now that the boys are not in school, it is a little hard to keep them occupied and not completely lazy. Normally, we would have someone keep a decent schedule, take them to the pool (which we canceled this summer). One day, I decided to surprise them.
Speaking of surprises, after waking up to a wild cat in our house, I discovered a wild chipmunk a couple weeks later. We thought he managed to escape back outside, but then, while the boys were at the driving range, I found him in the pantry. Marty bought a couple traps and we managed to catch him over night and set him free. We are overrun with chipmunks this summer. Our neighbors are killing them, but it's hard when they are so cute!
I borrowed our friend's Grand Valley Preserve pass, just before they went on vacation. It was a beautiful weekend to check it out. We borrowed the Parker's canoe and went out last Saturday morning.
Last Sunday, we invited the Reckamps for an outdoor grill out. We do miss our friends and it's helped to have our backyard to host people to come by.
