Summer Fun!! (and crockpot day 23)

I signed Bugs and Daddy up for wet wigglers swimmings lessons at the DRC. I figured it'd be good for them to get some special time together. I'm looking forward to taking it with Konnor later this fall. Needless to say, they're both loving it and they'll both probably be disappointed next week when it's over.




Since the temps have been nothing but insanely hot outside, we've been trying to find more fun things inside to keep us busy. I learned this trick when I worked at a daycare center.....spray some shaving cream out on the table and HAVE A BLAST! Everyone stayed happy long enough for me to go through some mail and get some bills paid.










I've learned to have my camera ready when Katie says, "Looky Momma!" Lately, if she sees a pair of shoes laying around, she puts them on. This time, is was Bubba's.


I do love me some sweet potatoes, so on Wednesday, I wrapped a few in foil and cooked them in my crock. They cooked on high for about 5 hours. I had one for lunch yesterday and I'll eat the other sometime this weekend. YUM!


I was super excited to get to Walgreen's this weekend for the RR deals they're having. I was clapping for myself on the way home because I got all this stuff for $6.42 and I have $13 RR to spend on my next trip!


I've got a trip to Target and Dillon's planned this weekend. We skipped grocery shopping altogether last week, so hopefully I can still stay under budget! We've got another busy weekend ahead! Hopefully everyone stays healthy so we can finally have some fun! I'm not sure if I'll be crocking and now that I'm back to work, I'm thinking of designating one day a week specifically for crockpot cooking. Maybe Wednesdays?

Love the shaving creme idea and it looks like it was a big hit!!! Konnor is even taking it all in. Love the pictures of Katie at the pool too. You all will have to go as a family to the Mulvane pool. I want to come over and go to the water park with the kids there in Derby? have you been to it?

Katie is so adorable in her Gymbo! She's going to be sad when swimming ends.

Oh, my! How adorable!

What a fun idea! That is definitely Fun on a Dime! I'll be linking up to you tomorrow! You can get a bottle of shaving cream for pretty cheap!

Thanks for linking up! Your kiddos are adorable!
