Is Summer really over?! Truly, it can't be?!!!? It seems as if it were yesterday that I was getting Ryan off the bus and we were beginning our Summer adventure! I will state that this Summer was a BLAST!!! And, boy did we do A LOT :) We enjoyed our new pool, Stratford Swim Club-Thank-You Grandma Joyce for the recommendation :) Ryan enjoyed Summer Camp and is getting ready to be a big 2nd grader! Lukey was accepted into Voorhees District's Preschool Program-WOOHOOO for both Lukey and Mommy! So, he is preparing for his first experience with preschool :) Also, we enjoyed the library so much this Summer, we literally were there, whether it was for Ryan or Lukey or even the both of them together, every other day. The reason we were at the library so much is b/c Ryan and Lukey really enjoyed the theme, which was the "Ocean" :) When we didn't spend our time at the library we could be found at the "FREE MOVIES", we saw movies, such as "Surf's Up" or "Tale of Desperaux" but my all time favorite was "ET". The boys enjoyed this experience, Mommy liked it too b/c it was "FREE" :) We experienced our first FRUA (Families for Russian and Ukrainian Adoption) Picnic. The boys had a great time at this. It was wonderful to get together with other adoptive parents who have adopted from Eastern Europe and share your story. It reminded me of Ryan's Azerbaijani Reunion we go to but without the travel involved b/c it was right here in South Jersey. Ryan participated in a horse show, he received a trophy and a ribbon :) A family favorite is wrestling up the boys and going to Burlington County Farm Fair, as you will take notice-one of the chickens had the same exact hair cut that Lukey was sporting-LOL! Our family was invited to a bday party at Holiday Roller Rink, which is amazing b/c Ron and I can remember roller skating there as children...ahhhhh memories :) The boys rejoiced every time they were taken bowling this Summer. I joined kids bowl free, and we used it pretty regularly but after the 5th time bowling I was done BUT not the boys :)
We spent time in Jersey City/NYC for Ryan's 9th Annual Azerbaijani Reunion, you can find all about that in my last post. And who can forget our time this Summer spent standing in line waiting to be let in to Carlo's Bake Shop...that was two posts ago. This Summer we spent time at the Jersey Shore, whether it was in LBI with friends, at Margate with CK and the Kennedy's (BTW, Thank-You Kennedy's) and Aunt Woo, or as a family in Ocean City, we had FUN! Over all this Summer ranks up there...I can't believe the boys are going to be a 2nd Grader and a Preschooler?! Where did that time go?!
Love & HUGS,
Jenny, Ron, Ryan, & Lukey :)
