Yesterday ( Saturday ) we headed to London, 2 1/2 hours away to finish our school shopping. It was a full day but a very productive day. We left before 7 am and got to London just before the stores open. We hit Staples, the Mall, Best Buy and Costco. We totally filled up the car, with help from our friends who had lists for us too. We made it back home in time to join the Berkman's and Dunham's at the Berkman's house for dinner. Brooke's folks were in town for a few days and Marilyn made her ribs, potato salad, coleslaw and apple pie. It was a great visit with everyone and wonderful to see Al and Marilyn.
Today was a bit of a lazy day. A friend of ours had their first baby on Friday evening so we called them and asked if we could come over and bring them dinner and see little Coco Lyna ( said Leena ). So Matt and I did some shopping for food. I made a pasta dish while Matt made a yummy fruit salad with fresh fruit from a berry farm. We all went over for our visit. OH how I LOVED holding that little girl. She is so sweet and her mom is AMAZING!! Coco was born at home!!
After, we took Kaitlyn to her friend Olivia's house for a sleepover. Matt, Grace and I decided to hit the beach and take a long walk. It was such a beautiful day today and a great evening walk. Later on we will be making a campfire and roasting marshmallows.
Tomorrow is officially the girls last day of summer. School starts on Tuesday and they are all ready to go. Grace is more excited than Kaitlyn but I know they are both ready to go back. As I too am ready for them to go!
