Summer 2020 Visit from B&A

A visit from his favorite people - Brett, Ali, Katie, and Jack. What a lucky kid. 

 

7th Birthday Week!

Old Home Week - Bonfire + Concert

One of my favorite events of the summer - the bonfire and concert at Craigville Beach at the end of Old Home Week! This year we met the Milnes and the Kochs there. The kids had a blast and we didn't hear a peep from them all night... until it was bonfire time. Colton was a little nervous about the fire... Sweet Kayleigh put her arm around Colton and said, 'don't worry. if it gets out of control, I'll put you on my back and just run.' How stinking cute (and that's the photo of the girl with her arm around Colton above).

First Race

For Centerville Old Home Week, there were a few road races..  kids included. For 6 year olds it was a 100M dash. Colton was SOO excited for it. He talked about it for weeks leading up to it... he kept saying he was going to WIN the race. I thought, no way. But turns out he did. Ha.

boat obsessed

Colton and A watching a massive sailboat from Spain park at our marine. Yesterday, a 207' mega yacht parked across from us. Colton was impressed. The kid LOVES boats. 

First Lost Tooth

Colton lost his first tooth a few days before his 6th Birthday! It had been loose for quite some time... he's not a yanker, apparently. It came out after a big night playing outside until almost 10pm with kids buds, NJ and Annie! The tooth fairy left him $2. He told me the next morning that he thought the tooth fairy is a, 'real man who takes kids teeth and puts them in a big museum.' HA! That was a new one for me. He looks so much more grown up with a tooth gone... and another is on its way!
