Olympic and Summer Fun!

Ok so we might be a tad bit obsessed with the Olympics!! We just love them! We all were so excited for them to begin and so far it has not disappointed. On Friday night for the Opening Ceremony, we invited a couple families over to eat and watch it together. It was great and the kids were excited each time one of the countries they had colored a flag of came on the screen. We have been learning about a lot different countries and we love it!

We made our own medals to wear, thanks to our creative friend Mitzi.....

And we had to have "Olympic Torch" cupcakes for the ceremony!

Here is an updated photo of the kids for their wonderful Grandparents

There have been a few times that we have stepped away from the Olympics and played.... yesterday we went with our friends the Waters to the zoo....I know CRAZY to go to the zoo in the middle of the summer in Texas....but we went early and we survived....and we managed to even have FUN!

Here are all the kids, minus cute little Emma

They were excited because they got ONE ride on the carousel.

Gotta Play on those drums at the African Safari!

           We had a nice day and we are enjoying the summer, even though it's super hot!
