40 Days Down, 20 Days to Go

We're getting closer to the end! Tracy has spent the last week at his parents. His little brother returned from his mission on the 31st. Today he is heading to Capitol Reef for a few days and then onto the Circle Cliffs for another few days. 

Here's what James and I have been doing for our 60 days of summer fun:

DAY 31: Pioneer Celebration
This day was going to be plant seeds, but we ended up getting a ride to our Stake Pioneer Celebration.
We enjoyed a delicious dinner and James had fun playing with other kids before watching the program they had. James lasted 10 min and then he was ready to go back to playing.

DAY 32: Skype with Family
 Since Daddy was available we Skype with him. 

DAY 33: Game Night
Doing puzzles for game night. 

DAY 34: Bubbles
Bubbles are so fun. Too bad he keeps spilling the bottle and ending our bubble fun early. 

DAY 35: Make Brownies
 James actually ate the brownies this time. 
He's a pretty picky eater and it usually takes some convincing to eat something new.

DAY 36: Watercolors 

DAY 37: Beach
This day was going to be splash pad day,
but a trip to the beach with my brother trumped the splash pad. 

DAY 38: Splash Pad
With a beach day the day before I decided to just move it to the next day, 
instead of doing a water balloon fight. 
James decided he wanted to play by the fish pond instead of getting wet.

DAY 39: Farmer's Market
We went to the Downtown Farmer's Market and then James played in the splash pad near by afterwards. 

DAY 40: Pizza Party
James helped me make the sauce and the dough. 
He ate olives while I cut them. Then, we topped the pizzas.
He snacked so much on the toppings, he didn't want any pizza once it was cooked.

He loves to help me cook.

Stay tuned for our next 10 days of fun.
