barrett: 110 months old


We're into July already - where has the summer gone?!  I always run into the same conundrum every summer - enough activities and camps for the kids so I can work, but not too much that they feel like they never got free time to do nothing/play on an iPad all day.  Next week, Barrett is headed to drama camp, and is doing "RockstarTopia" and "Harry Potter."  Then he's off for a week, hanging out with Memaw and PawPaw, then we're on vacation!  Barrett is pretty excited about our upcoming cruise, and it'll be the first time both he and Britton go to Europe.  Definitely a bucket list trip!  Making it through a 10 hour flight will be a challenge for all of us, but I've promised they can watch as many movies as they like.  I'll try and sleep (now where's my travel pillow?).

We cooked some hot dogs for the 4th of July, but couldn't do any fireworks because it's been too dry in our area.  The kids were ho hum about going to see the fireworks show, so we played a 3 hour game of Monopoly.  Ugh, I cringe when they want to play Monopoly because the game.goes.on.FOREVER.  I finally start making "mistakes" and spend all my money so we can wrap it up!  But Barrett went all in, and he and the hubs were the last two players standing.  

  

Likes: Harry Potter series - we finally started reading them together, Air Force One he got in Roblox

Dislikes: this brutal summer heat
