On Sunday evening, Daddy made a scavenger hunt for the kiddos and then Ayson made a scavenger hunt for Adam!
Adam's clues
Another clue
Adam's prize: a new car (matchbox car, that is)!!!
Grandma Pat and Grandpa Roger kept the kids busy during the week: swimming everyday, out to lunch three of the five days, reading, homework, and games.
Tired Dolly napping with Grandpa before dinner on Monday.
A hot walk in the orchard Monday night!
Grandma Pat's birthday was on Tuesday and we celebrated with a birthday dinner and ice cream for dessert! (unfortunately, no pictures!)
Good morning, Grandma!
On Wednesday, we went to school to drop off school supplies and to show Grandma and Grandpa the kid's classrooms and meet their teachers for the new school year.
Adam canned TWO batches of tomatoes Wednesday evening!
On Thursday, the kiddos each had two Monarch caterpillars in mason jars that were getting ready to form chrysalises.
So cool!
Ayson was busy during the week creating a "Bonnie" costume - for Halloween.
Thanks to the Anthony's and their pool, the kids were able to play and cool off during the week!
The kiddos made cookies with Grandma!!! Yum!
Addie's favorite part of summer vacation: Grandma's visit!
First football game of the season
Gorgeous sunset on Thursday!
Friday bike rides
and flower investigating
Ayson's new stuffed animal (that he saved his own money to buy!) arrived on Friday. Ayson was SO happy - check out that smile!
Ayson in his costume and holding his new toy and a headlamp (with a red light) that Grandpa and Grandma gave him.
Addie cuddling with Grandpa before dinner (again :)

Grandpa and Grandma brought Mommy (and the kiddos) keepsakes from Great Grandma Roe.
Well HELLO, September!
Roe Family picture
and the Ryan-Roes :)
After Grandma and Grandpa left on Saturday morning, Mommy and the kiddos went to Roseland Waterpark with Auntie Julie and cousins Kaela and Curran! The kids had fun in the wave pool and on the slides! Addie even went down a slide without Mommy!
After the waterpark, we head to Auntie Julie and Uncle Dan's place for a seafood boil and a camp out.
Cousins
Lobsters!!!
Grandma Collene with the massive amount of food
Grandpa and his grand kids. We celebrated Grandpa Chuck's birthday on Saturday:)
Glow sticks and a dance off!
Sun rise on Sunday morning
Aunties sunnies
An Isabella tiger moth (also known as a woolly bear)
A walk in the gully after breakfast
Crazy caterpillar: spiny Io moth. Io Moth caterpillar spines can "sting," and the stinging hairs are technically known as "urticating spines."
Ring pop tongues
Giant puffball mushrooms!!
Four leaf clover hunting
Addie insisted on taking a picture of the "elbow" tree
Addie's photo shoot: Addie wanted to take a picture of Mommy and Auntie and she wanted "real" smiles :)
So we made sure to return the favor!
Riding back up the driveway after fishing - no luck! Granted, it was crazy hot and the fish were probably just not biting.
Hammocks turned the kids into roosting bats!
On Labor Day, Daddy and the kiddos memorialized Summer 2018 with quick dry concrete :)
