Ode to the End of Summer

A bittersweet week it certainly has been,

I'm SO NOT READY for this school year to begin.

One last week to enjoy our break,

we crammed a lot in for some memories to make.

We camped with our church family at Whispering Pines,

Karson rappelled with only a few little whines.



Hey, wait, are those girls MODELS who attended camp?

Why, yes, yes they are, they even look GOOD DAMP =).

Isaac and Mason had some fun,

 

shooting each other and peeing on trash drums.

The kickball game was a sight to see,

lots of good laughs, with (fortunately) no injuries.
On Monday, we ventured over to Russell Sims,

lots of good swimming and lots of good grins.

Tuesday brought the Back to School Bash at Drakes,

free jumping tent, we're THERE for goodness sakes.

Wednesday, the kids went with their Dad to see G-Force,

I planned to attend, but missed it, of course.

Back to School shopping needed to be done.

Shopping + Kids never equals fun.

Speaking of clothes, Isaac's still the man.

He's worn this shirt for two weeks, being stinky is the plan.

On Thursday, we went to The Paint'n Place,

fragile pottery we managed not to break.

Our friends Jack and Reese joined in the mix,

Isaac needs his weekly "Jackson McMillen" fix.

A 550 piece puzzle we finished later that eve,

two days was all it took, can you hardly believe (it)?

Miles cracks me up in these summer shades,

lense-less glasses are the latest craze!

In fact, he's just a funny lad

when you're # 3, you don't know how to be bad =).

Your Mommy knows how to relax out in the sun.

and let kids be kids and just have fun!!!

Thanks for reading my little rhyme,

but I really am running out of time.

Three wild kiddos need to be bathed,

I'm really hoping to survive unscathed!!!
