End of "Summer"

We had to squeeze in a little more fun before school started back up!

The girls and I spent a day at Brookfield Zoo. The highlight of the visit was the Lego Animal Exhibit! The girls loved reading how many Lego bricks were used in each animal and the number of hours it took to construct.





Nate took the girls to Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve with his friend Matt and his kids, while I was at work! Jade has really become quite the adventurer.





I'm gonna miss my errand buddies...well maybe ;)


Definitely going to miss our park stops!


We celebrated my Dad's 60th Birthday at a family favorite, Pilot Pete's!


Nate took the girls to a new park one day while I was working. I love that he enjoys taking them to new places as much as I do!



One of the girls biggest requests was a family fun day at Sea Lion Aquatic Park!


We also had our first visit to the Morton Arboretum in Lisle! It certainly will not be our last. The girls had so much fun with school friends Aubrey and Brynn, and their little sister Kendall!


On our last day of summer break, I told the girls they could each choose anything they wanted for us to do that day! Jemma chose a visit to a favorite park and Jade chose ice cream from Dairy Queen. My pick was to take the girls to the salon for their first manicure! We had the best day!




The girls are excited to go back to school, but I'm going to miss spending all day with them! We had such a fun and memorable summer, beyond blessed!
