Summer Break: Week Eight

It was another fairly quiet week at our house. This week, we enjoyed a playdate (five boys at the house!), swim lessons, dollar movies, and a few outings. Here are some of the week's highlights:

Superhero Henry.


My boys were both busy reading (The Beyonders series for Will, The Secrets of Droon series for Henry) before the Children's Hilltop Festival show at Miller Outdoor Theatre. We saw a version of The Three Little Pigs in which the pigs were pig scouts working on their camping badges. Perfect for my own little scouts!


Building, building, building! My boys love to build. We don't have Lincoln Logs at our house, so the boys love to play with them when we visit Gramma and Grampa.


We often see the Monster PB&J food truck at the Contemporary Arts Museum when we're in the Museum District, so we decided to stop by for lunch on Friday. 

 

Endless sculpture by Joseph Havel outside the CAMH.


These monsterlicious sandwiches aren't your standard PB&J. They are loaded and yummy and best of all, you can get them grilled! Will had peanut butter, sliced apples and strawberry jam; Henry had peanut butter, nutella and strawberry slices; and I had almond butter and sliced strawberries with the en fuego (sweet/spicy) sauce. Mmmm! 


We enjoyed our lunch across the street at the Cullen Sculpture Garden, which we pretty much had all to ourselves because it is finally getting HOT here in Houston.


Inside, we've done lots of arts and crafts. 


Henry drew this fall picture one night before bed while wearing Christmas jammies. Do you think he's ready for some cooler temps?



And finally, a picture of my snaggletoothed boy. Will's got two wiggly top teeth and we just know one is going to come out soon!


Summer is flying by; only one more month til school starts back up!
