Happy belated 4th of July! We spent lots of time outdoors this past weekend, and discovered a new beach about 20 minutes away (located on Lake Minnetonka) that we all loved.
The girls were wiped out after all the fun!
On Friday, I needed to work so Quinn came along with me. Construction on our new lab space was just completed, so he got to be the first visitor!
Moin, Quinn, my dad and I also went to a Minnesota Lynx game. This was Quinn's first professional basketball game and probably his last for a while. He's enjoyed the baseball games he's attended so far, but didn't really loved watching basketball. He likes to play it, though.
It was a nice, lazy, long weekend.
In other summer news, the girls have been playing outside a lot lately and getting lots of knee scrapes. In a weird identical twin moment, they scraped the same knee at almost the same time the other day.
We also took away the girls' diapers for good a week ago, after a false start a couple months ago. penelope was trained instantly - she has yet to have a single accident. Zahra still has accidents from time to time but has also done a fantastic job. We're so proud of them!
Quinn's been doing the library summer reading program. When he completed his first ten hours he got a free book from the library and he and I went out for ice cream.
Then, when he completed his next ten hours the library gave him: a free book, a state fair ticket, a water park ticket, and a coupon for a free Culver's custard. Score! I think summer reading might count as his first summer job.
