More summer fun

This week was busy finishing swimming lessons and just having fun overall! It has been really hot out, so we're trying to stay cool.
 Ruby with her teacher Jeff and Reid with his teacher Jessica.
 Reid wanted to wear his baby bunny.
 Andy was at dinner with his coworkers one evening and I got the kids ready for bed. I had to put Miles to bed, and the big kids were so good! Ruby read to Reid quietly on the couch. <3
 Climber!
 Ruby had been swallowing too much pool water and every day after lunch she felt sick. Then also she got a lovely summer cold (and then shared it with Miles and I). Poor Ruby.
 We played Sardines after dinner. This was Reid's hiding spot. Haha!
 The kids got free books for finishing the summer reading program at the library! Miles was reading his and blabbering, it was so funny.
 Ruby did SO good on her back floats and almost passed out of level one. She just has a little bit more to go with steamboats and front floats.
 Reid walked like this all the way into the dressing room after swim lessons every day... he was so cold.
 They wanted to potty train Miles! He thought it was pretty funny.
 He found his nose!
 They were playing wedding.
 After they finished swimming lessons they each got a prize for trying new things. We were super proud of Reid not being scared or throwing any fits. He got this fun take apart crane truck.
 And Ruby chose this makeup bag. She's been doing makeup almost daily since. Haha
 On Saturday we went to the Robin Hood Festival!
 We ran into some friends, which was super fun. Andy and Nathan learned some sword fighting moves.
And then the kids had a turn too. 
 They loved it!
Miles LOVED meeting this little puppy. We need a dog.
 Our kids with William and Juniper riding a magical unicorn.
 Ruby carried Junie all around the festival. Haha! She's almost two, but she's smaller than Miles.
 Then we met Robin Hood and Maid Marian.
 And we had fun watching BJ the Clown. That's Reid and William standing up down front.
 We busted out the Halloween buckets for some blackberry picking.
 Grandpa Del and Grandma Patty joined us! We got a bunch to freeze and they were delicious.
 Ruby found the Frozen microphone. :)
 He copies EVERYTHING we do.
 Ruby and Reid colored Elsas and put on a puppet show for us. Ruby wrote a little script and made Andy narrate. It was the cutest.
 BFD with some delicious blackberries.
 Nightly wrestling has become a thing around here.
 We've been putting the kids to bed in separate bedrooms, which works out well. Except I was starting to get sick so I wanted to go to bed early and Ruby was still awake. So we laid in bed and read our bibles together. <3
 On Monday I took the kids to see Presto the Magician at the Bethany fountain.
 I love her smile.
 Reid thought it was pretty great.
 And then we played Sequence after nap.
