Summer Family Goals

Although June 1st is not technically the start of summer, it often seems to be the start in our minds.

Eaden and I recently decided that it would be best if we quit competitive gymnastics. It was starting to take its toll on her and I. The money, the driving, the time. It was all starting to be too much. Also, the summer is when everything starts picking up. We would have had to drive her across town in morning traffic for 8:30 AM practices and somehow find the money for competition leos, warm ups, and meet fees. 

She is now taking gymnastics for fun at a gym much closer to our house. 
With that said, here are our goals!

Stay home as much as possible.
Relax and enjoy.
Eat healthy.
Eaden and Naia learn to swim.
Gymnastics for fun.
Minimize driving.
Do not spend money.
Read a lot.
Family time every Friday night (prepare dinner together, eat, activity, movie).
Try to get outside even though it's 100 degrees...

Here are some pics from our Family Night this past Friday.

We did this craft (seen on Pinterest) together late in the afternoon.


 Everyone helped make pizzas for dinner.




 Our activity was a puzzle (done primarily by Naia).



 Then we tried to watch The Hobbit for movie night. I say "tried" because Mirek and Taven started running around and jumping on everyone. We ended up watching the movie Saturday afternoon.


 Here is Mirek in his leo doing gymnastics with his brother (Taven had on a leo as well) and sisters Saturday morning.


Let's have the best summer ever!
