Birthday Party (FINALLY) For The Little Boys

7:32pm

Three months later, we were finally able to have a small family birthday party for Rerun and Thumper.  Of course, I had planned on having everyone outside, and then it ends up being the chilliest day in June.

And yes, these two need haircuts badly, and they will this week, but parties wait for no haircut.

Even though most of the presents had been opened over the last couple of months, we still had a few things for each boy to open.

And there were cake and candles.  Auntie provided chocolate cupcakes for the party, and I had made lemon pound cakes as well.

I’m just glad that we could FINALLY have a party for these two!

And speaking of birthdays, it’s the Webmaster’s birthday today!  Happy birthday, hon – you’ve been such a trooper!

Swimming Is Back!

7:28pm

The pools have just opened back up (well, some of them) and the boys are thrilled!

Thumper was in absolute sensory heaven, Rerun enjoyed the exercise, and Tad liked the deeper pool.  We may have to keep this up for Tad again!

Mini Golf Fun!

7:19pm

School’s out, and it’s time to play!

So Danny’s mom and I decided that it would be fun to take the boys mini golfing!

Tad and Danny had been to this mini golf (and driving range for adults) course before with Danny’s mom, but Rerun, Thumper, and I had never been here.  It was such a fun spot, with a really well-kept 18 hole mini golf course.

Even though Thumper thought mini golf was more like croquet.

Also, his left-handedness was a little hard for both of us, as I was often helping him putt.

Still, it was a whole lot of fun for Danny and Tad to hang out again.

After we finished the course, we headed off to pick up lunch, which we then took to our backyard and had a small picnic.  It was a very nice way to kick off summer vacation!

Back In Session!!!

12:13pm

As school ended, everywhere else was beginning to make plans for their “soft” reopenings.

So Thumper is back in therapy – IN PERSON!!!

He’s doing pretty well with wearing his mask, but fortunately, he doesn’t have to wear it in the therapy room.  Now, we just have to get him used to doing in-person therapy again…
