Small Moment Monday x2

We missed last week cause we were out of town, but I have blogs from the kids for both weeks...so here we go!

Monday the 4th
NATHAN

I went to see fireworks with Emily and Ben. I went up on the roof to watch the fireworks. I also went swimming at Grandma's. It was really cold in the water but the second time I just jumped off the diving board and went down the slide a lot.

We woke up in the morning and had no idea what to do. Everybody was going out of town so we went too. We got to Fish Hook and went boating. I went swimming in the freezing cold water with worms on the bottom. We had a party with our cousins. It was fun seeing the family.

My favorite thing was the fireworks. I liked shooting a bottle rocket and the other fireworks. I really, really liked swimming too. I liked the goats too.

I snuggled Emma and den Dada and den we went to Grammas and I started to slide and den I jumpeded and den....um...did you jumpeded? Nope. Den Nathan jumped off the diving board and den he slided down. The fireworks blewed up in da sky. Yeah, they flewed up and den blewed up! *giggle*

NATHAN

I went to see a baseball game with Will. I liked the game. I got two signed cards from Recycle Man and Otto. And then I went to an arena football game and I didn't like it. (funny story...he came home with a couple flags from the game. I asked him if he wanted to keep them or toss them and he said KEEP! So I said "I thought you didn't like football?" And he said "I don't. But I like flags!")

I went to my friends house and we went swimming but I was the only one who got wet!!!

GABE

I like everything about the BBQ. Roasting marshmallows was really fun. I like to make them golden brown and make s'mores.
