Summer Stuff and That’s What He Said


Happy Friday!  

We took the kids (minus Maggie who was scooping and JP who’s back at school) to Scarborough Beach this past weekend, and it was such a nice time.  We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful area!

Andrew stayed for a couple days with a friend’s family in Rhode Island, and had a blast going to the beach, golfing and tubing:

I was looking up a kid’s whereabouts, and it just struck me to see The Ice Cream Cottage listed as a location.  Like, we built that little business from nothing and now it’s literally on the map:

The Peach Dole Whip was a huge hit this week:

A little crooked, but omg it tastes like gummy peach candies!
Lucy Doodle turned 10!!!  She got her hairs did, had a Greenie, and posed awkwardly for me.  I think she’s embarrassed by the bandana the groomer puts on her:

We took Andrew and Declan top Costco to help Andrew get some groceries for his off-campus house this year, and the Halloween stuff was out already.  Ugh.  Too soon.

The littles were finally able to try the Solar S’mores to mixed success.  The chocolate melted but the marshmallow did not get gooey.  They still ate it!

Then they played in the sprinkler and jumped on the trampoline, just like almost every other summer afternoon.  

Phil had them clean out the van before our big trip out to college next week, and they look appropriately thrilled:

Still rocking the Minion shirt
But then Brendan’s godmother came by to give him an early birthday present, and he was actually thrilled!

We took Andrew and Eamon out for an end of the summer dinner last night…

… and then Andrew drove off early this morning to head back to Franciscan for his Senior year 🙁  

He will be the Men’s Soccer Team Manager this year and also the Head of the same Mission Trip he went on last year, so he had to get back early for work and a retreat.  Dang this summer went by way too quick.

I showed Phil this photo of the married owners of the gym I was going to this summer:

Me: Don’t they look amazing?

Phil: They look like they own a gym.

*pause*

Phil: And we look like we own an ice cream store.

And on that note, have a great weekend everybody!!
