Summer went by way too fast. It was full of lots of video games, both kids got into Fortnight. It was full of seeing friends whenever possible and going to Boomers, K1 Speed, etc. They did Seals swim team again.
We took dad to Flightdeck for father’s day. The kiddos did a dog fight with dad. Nikki did get a skull and cross bones when she landed, ha ha It was all in great fun! Justin loved it the most.
In fact, Justin tried out on a new camp at Flight Deck Aviation, flight simulators. He loved the camp. So great to see him so excited about it. We signed him up for the second camp as well.
We also went on vacation. We went to Florida then on a Royal Caribbean cruise to Bahamas. It was an amazing trip, lots packed into a short amount of time. We were pathetic as we didn’t want to leave Cody any longer than we had to. And boy did we miss him. We went to the Magic Kingdom AKA Disney World. Of course it was hot and humid and loved the random rain. I was amazed at how similar the two Disney’s are.Kiddos go on every ride, no fear what so ever. Nikki’s highlight of the trip had to be swimming with the dolphins. She named her dolphin Kelly. My highlight was probably going to Atlantis. I have always wanted to go there and it did not disappoint. We had a blast at the water park. Kiddos went on crazy slides that I would never go on. We went down the one where you go through a clear tunnel and you get to see the sharks. This is where dad accidentally went into the water with his cell phone in his pockets, oops. Royal Caribbeans private Island, Coco Cay was dad’s favorite part of the trip. It was so relaxing, the water was clear and so warm. The cruise ship was amazing. So much to do and so much food.
Here is the first day of 7th grade picture. And Justin has bright orange shoes (size 9.5) to match his bright orange backpack. Love it as I can see him a mile away.
I can’t believe how big these kids are. They have grown so much. Justin had the biggest growth spurt ever.
Kiddos are really liking middle school. They were really done with elementary, really needed a change. Justin is loving his exploring tech class. He is making lots of things on the 3D printer. I think Nikki loves the social aspect of school most. She has been going to the shopping center nearby school with her friends on early dismissal days and late start Friday days.
