day 147....
.... it was late, I realized that I had taken a photo yet that day.... went into Clara's room with my phone, hoping to snap a quick little sweet sleeping picture... instead, found her up building a "portable lego house".... sigh.
day 148....
.... another late night, another day without a photo.... so I snapped a quick photo of what was on my nightstand with my phone.... The Red Pyramid (Alex's book but he said I could read it first since he was heading to camp) and the ID card Clara made me so I can enter her room.
day 149....
... our friends hosted a last bash before camp... the kids had a blast! After playing in the sprinkler a while, they decided to have an art sale. This is the buzz after the announcement that "customers are coming!" had been made. They did end up making $11, which shocked us all! Given that there were nine kids with varying levels of involvement in the whole venture, they opted to give the money to a charity versus try to figure out a way to split it.
day 150....
....Bike the Drive. Clara's first year. She had never ridden 15 miles before so she struggled a bit. Jeff said that she complained the entire way to the turn around point and then was good after that. (Jeff took this photo for me)
day 151...
.... the absolutely fabulous City Museum in St. Louis (more photos to come in another post).
day 152....
.... dropping the kids off at the bus to camp on one bright, sunny day!
day 154...
.... first day without the kids was a "me" day... hair cut and color, then a pedicure :-)
