Summer Fun

We are over halfway through the summer. I can't believe that I go back to work in a few short weeks and there is still so much left that we want to do!

I started to teach Lovey how to play Nerts, a card game I learned when I was about his age. He can't wait to show his Nana that he is learning to play.

The kids decided to go to summer camp the last two weeks, which has left me with a few hours to myself. Big Daddy and I have taken advantage of that to go on a few coffee dates. Today we tried out Sweet Charley B's cupcakes. Yum!!! I had the toffee crunch cupcake and Big Daddy had the Po-Po, a coffee and donut cupcake. The frosting was delicious on that one. I might be making a few cupcakes to figure out how to make it. We even brought back a lemonade cupcake for the kids to share.

We have taken up running as a family on the weekends. As soon as the kids get up, we run/walk/ride around the neighborhood. I think we will go to the track at the university this weekend and try that out. Our goal is to complete the Family Turn Back the Clock Run in November and Big Daddy and I want to do the Rampage at the RAC in October.
