Well Summer came and went SO fast like usual! I can't believe my little Cayden is officially a first grader! I could tell he was a little nervous but definitely excited, he loves school!
I decided to do a fun little family dinner/family home evening the night before school. We decided to talk about putting on the armor of god which we had a cute little orange demonstration so I thought I would keep the theme alive so we ate orange chicken and had an orange cake for dessert. The kids loved it!
Last Summer Cayden wanted to try the water slide at our community pool. It was his first and last time, well this year we were invited serveral times to another community pool that had two bigger water slides. The first couple times we went he didnt even ask to go on them and then finally one day he got enough courage to try and would not stop! He LOVED it! I was really proud of him for getting over the fear and realizing how fun something could be =)
On 8/8 we decided to venture out to the San Diego Zoo since we normally go to the Wild Animal Park! We all had a great time!! Zoo's are always hit and miss with how many animals you will see and how up-close they will be but this time we were able to have some up-close fun encounters with the animals which made the trip so fun!!
Cayden has always been interested in gymnastics since the last time he did it and so when I found a summer program I signed him up! Unfortunately for his day and time he was the only boy, but I don't think that bothered him one bit =) His class had their little performance on their last day, 8/4 and they were to dress up like a Disney character, luckily that meant getting away with a Marval character...
