Last week 9- Transportation












This was the last week of our summer and we enjoyed a week of transportation. This week included some fun times with all of Vivi's "Cars" toys, books, and the movie. Even Isaac really got into throwing her cars all over the house. Monday we watched "Cars" the movie and played at home. Tuesday we made some cookies and took them to our local firehouse. The Benbrook firemen gave us a tour and even let Vivi and Isaac ride a mini firetruck. Wednesday we got one last swim in at our friend's Ellen's and we watched "Jonah" and talked about boats that entire day. Thursday was a BIG day for suprises. We cleaned up a bike we've had in storage for a long time for Vivi and got training wheels, a basket (thanks Nana), and a bell. Vivi did a great job for the first time out on her new bike. We couldn't give Vivi such a big end of the summer treat and leave Isaac hanging...so he got his own new transportation toy too. Check out the pics of Isaac with his new plane! TOOO CUTE! Friday we headed over to the forest park train and went for a little ride. This was real sweet and the weather was so beautiful that day. All was great until I locked the keys in the car, but daddy bailed us out. It was a great last week of summer and I have enjoyed keeping up the creativity with the kids. I do hope we can make this a tradition for the summers. Maybe next year the kids will pick the themes.
