July 2017

Oh July, You have been so hot!  Summer in Texas can be brutal, it has been very  toasty this year. 

But we have managed to have some fun non the less.  We found a cool little toy at our local toy store (Sockmonkey Junction) they are called Boinks.  If you haven't tried them yet they are fun little toys that squish up and when you let it go it flings forward.  You can visit the site below to find out more. But we loved them! A fun non electronic toy that just keeps ya busy.

We have been to Six Flags & Hurricane Harbor and let the kids ride a few rides.  Of course they go to the craziest new rides that will surely make someone my age sick.  I kept the bench warm during the last few adventures out the the amusement parks, too hot and too much spinning for me.  

We made sure we kept with tradition and went and got our Free Slurpee from 711 on 7/11.  Mainly because I like free stuff!  You can't go wrong with a free cool drink on a very hot day in Texas!

There has been lots of swimming, it's summer so we take full advantage of the pools!!!  We love having a pool walking distance from our house.

 Snapchat.  Need I say more?  If you aren't on the snapchat bandwagon, don't do it!  It is highly addictive and the kids love it.  We are usually cracking up at some of the filtered photos.

4th of July was our normal.  We met with our friends that we have done 4th of July with for 4-5 years at least.  We go and watch fireworks down the street from our house and the huge celebration that our city puts on.  Then the next day we watched the Macy's 4th on TV cuddled on the couch.

You guys know how much I love finding things to do with my kids and make family time together?  ALOT 

JC had been begging to make slime since the last week of school so we finally got out all the stuff and got to mixing.  I have been making slime for over 15 years with my preschool kiddos, and now it is this HUGE craze with all the kids.  I actually find it kind of funny that the big kids are so into it.  

But anyway, we made slime and they loved it!

July has been a great month for us!
