At the end of July, I got to meet a friend, Meredith, and her family, who I haven’t seen for many years! Paul and her her son Andre had a fun time playing together. It was so much fun to catch up on life!
Friends!

Cousins Bowling
Pirate’s Cove with Cousins!
Paul and his cousins got a chance to revisit Pirate’s Cove!
Paul stayed a little long after his cousins left to have a water balloon fight with some other kids. (The teenagers in charge didn’t quite know how to coordinate 30 4-6 year old kids but the kids still had fun!)
A Cousins Climbing Show with Puppets
Cousin Samuel was not feeling well. He is taking a nap inside. But these climbers wanted to put on a show! And they are holding puppets as they climb!

Here are the cousins (aged 6 and younger; Daniel was at a class at this time)!
Sorenson Family Reunion 2012: Train Restaurant!
When a family has five children under the age of 5, another four between ages 4 and 6 (plus an 11 year old), the best possible place to have a family dinner is obviously the Train Restaurant!
Paul loves watching his food come out on a train.
Who knows when these four siblings will be together again?!
A great time was had by all! (Caroline slept through it in her carseat…)

Trip to the Zoo!
At the end of June, we went to the zoo with a friend!
We saw the Dolphin Show.
Paul pretended he was a zookeeper.
Paul and Meredith had a fun time!
(Caroline slept in her carseat most of the day!)
Rooty the Carrot and a Mammal Hunt
Our library’s summer reading program has a theme of “Reading is So Delicious!” Going along with that, we had the chance to check out a carrot named Rooty to take with us on our adventures.
Last week, we took Rooty with us as we went on a “mammal hunt.” Paul has been learning about mammals (versus everything else) so our trip to the Barnyard Zoo and then our Trip to the EIEIO exhibit at the Discovery Center Museum was a fun time to talk practically about which animals were mammals and which were not. We visited the Discovery Center Museum on two different days.

Caroline had fun too. (This is our toy from home.)

Pirate’s Cove
Paul and I went to a kiddie amusement park, Pirate’s Cove. It is geared toward 1-8 year olds, mostly 4-6 year olds, and it was simply perfect for Paul’s age. I was too big, and Caroline was too little, so it was a day for Paul!
He wrote up his thoughts on his new webpage. He will be tracking his homeschool projects on that site, and I’m encouraging him to write and type his own posts. I am adding some previous posts that I wrote, but from here on out, it will be his!
Anyway, back to Pirate’s Cove.
Apparently, Caroline was happy to just be in her carseat, smiling at people.
