Last Day of Summer



Today was our last day of summer vacation before we go back to school on Monday. We celebrated by going bowling with all the McClure cousins! Bode was a good little spectator...he really liked the flashing lights and the bright colored balls, but wasn't so sure about the loud crash of the pins.

The kids had a fun time, but lost interest quickly. So Marnie, Michelle and I filled in. I even bowled a strike with Bode in my arms! Of course it was while everyone else was in the arcade, so I'm sure no one believes me!



It is amazing how high your score can get with the help of bumpers and a ramp. The only problem was that the girls got so excited they would push the ramp over the line and get a foul!








I've never thought bowling shoes were particularly stylish, but kid size ones! They are so cute!

The girls were really sweet and even let Bode help them roll the ball.

The McGirl Cousins: Claire, Kendyl, Paige, Karlie & Addy

You guys always do such fun things together! I'm glad you all had a great summer. I'm so excited for Paige to start school. I hope it goes well for all of you!

We had a lot of fun hanging out with you guys this weekend. Jackson sure loves his friends Paige and Claire! We love you guys! See you soon!

You guys are a busy crew! Bowling always sounds fun but never seems to keep the attention of the little ones. We seem to always be doing it though.

Anyways, Bode is looking handsome and all grown up already. Piper is wearing the dress he sent now and it is one of my favorites! I always read your blog but don't comment a lot(I'll try harder!). You are an excellent story teller and I am always reading something you wrote to Dayne.
