End of Summer Fun!

The last few weeks of summer flew by! We tried to get in as much playing as we could! We went to the pool a few times and splash pad, but it rained a lot the last couple weeks.
We of course spent day and night watching the Rio 2016 Summer Olympics!
We realized, however, even though we live in America, we only have German attire! We need to work on that!
We had our very own gymnasts in the house. Gymnastics is one of my favorite sports to watch! We loved watching all the athletes. So inspiring to me. They are so strong!

We also got in a quick trip to Baton Rouge, LA to visit Aunt Daphne who has been gone all summer. 
She is seriously the most fun Aunt you could ask for. The weekend we went Baton Rouge had one of the worst floods in history. While so incredibly devastating, Daphne was safe and her home was spared. So, she took the time to dance in the rain with the kids.
She also prepared fun crafts for them to do. 
We are so glad she is home and only 4 hours away again!
The last weekend we celebrated my sister Natalie's 40th birthday. She will be 40 tomorrow so we celebrated all together a little early.
Chira, Natalie, Mom, and I went shopping and to the Cheesecake Factory, and to get pedicures. It was a nice day to spend with Natalie.
The kids loved celebrating with her. Chira made her beautiful Snow White cake. 
We had such a great summer and I will seriously miss these cuties while they are at school!
