No Nonsense Nerds

Day N: Nightengale, "Nate the Great and the Crunchy Christmas", Nectarines

Today was fun and we tried New things. On top of Nectarines, which the kids quite enjoyed, we went bowling using the kidsbowlfree.com passes for summer. The kids did great, and for the most part had fun! 

Turns out my oldest is kind of a natural, must come from throwing poké balls all day ;) he got 105 his second game, with a strike and spare in sequence, oh, and a spare in the 10th! Almost forgot that excitement! 

Even my oldest girl started really getting into it towards the end

My younger daughter started getting bored as the balls were just to heavy and hers kept getting stuck half way down the lane. So, she watched a movie while the older kids bowled...meh, whatever, it was free! 

Our reading was a bit of a struggle, I think it's hard to sit for so long on one book when your six, and I only had one N themed book, so there wasn't as much variety, but he made it and read all three chapters, which filled his 30min reading goal. I really am proud that my 6 year old just straight up READS like he's 8 or 9...big words like, un-recognizable! My son ;)

We learned about nightingales, which apparently sing even louder when they live in cities as they compensate for background noise....sounds like my house! 

The last activity planned was the noodle necklaces, yup...double points for double N's! Ooh, triple...noodle necklace nerds! Hehe 
Not MY kids! No, never! Lol

And finally, I must confess there was one more N activity that happened, though unplanned… Mommy had a nap! And I'm feeling quite refreshed, regardless of the spider crawling on my leg as a wake up call!
'Night all!
