End of Summer Adventures

Well, when you've just spent a week in the mountains with 12 other kids under the age of 12, what could be more fun than a box? The other day, Cat and Jack had a blast taking turns sitting in this box, sitting in it together, pushing it around. For a while, Cat even pushed Jack around in it. I thought about painting it to look like a train or a truck or something, but figured that by the time we went through all that, the magic would be gone. I think I was right... the next day, neither of them cared about the box.

We took what I think will be our last trip to the beach this summer on Wednesday. The kids loved it, as they always do, and it was really fun that Cat and her friend both wore their cherry bathing suits. It's not every day you get to have a twin!

Could anything be more fun than playing in the sand and not caring how much of it comes home with you??

Cat helped Ben mow the grass yesterday. Usually, this means she just gets to ride on his lap while he drives the lawn mower, but more recently he has let her steer while he operates the pedals. I guess he got brave on Saturday because he actually let her cut the grass. I love the whimsical pattern she created, and had to take a picture before Ben "evened it out."
