Day one of summer was a definite success. We took the kids to Catch Air this morning where The Mayor, Love Bug, Trey and Luke played and played hard for over two hours. We took the kids to Taco Mac for a late lunch and then came home and played outside for the next 2 1/2 hours. The boys threw tennis balls at the throwing trainer, Love Bug played bubbles where each of the boys took turns playing bubbles with her and then I helped Luke and The Mayor with their tennis game in the driveway. Once the neighbor kids came home from school, The Mayor, Luke and Trey joined them for a game of kickball in the cul-de-sac. Around 4:00 we had to come inside to get cleaned up because The Mayor had karate.
Aunt Nat, Trey and Luke came to karate with us and got to see The Mayor earn the first half of his yellow stripe (for stranger danger skills). He should earn the full yellow stripe next week. Aunt Nat was impressed with The Mayor during karate, he is really showing great improvement with his focus and discipline. After his class, D and I met with one of his instructors and enrolled The Mayor in the Black Belt Club and committed to a year of training. The Mayor really loves karate so we are going to stick with it and see where it takes us!
After karate we went out for Mexican and by the time we got home, it was after bedtime. The kids went to bed and Aunt Nat, Trey and Luke loaded up and have headed home. We loved having them here and are looking forward to spending more time with them over the summer.
I am so excited about the long weekend. The weather is going to be gorgeous, we have fun plans for tomorrow and Sunday we are taking the kids to a minor league baseball game. Going to be a great weekend!

nothing a little tickling can't cure
