Adventures at the Skibicki House

Since my parents were here, we visited with the Skibicki family. We filled our day with...

Games
Dayton, Daphne, Mia, and Erica playing Uno Moo!
I guess Dayton didn't want his picture taken

Food
Joe cooked us bratwurst and burgers for dinner! The bratwurst were so good.
Eating chips and dip
Daphne made a MESS of her sundae cone

Swimming
Dayton liked splashing in the foot rinsing bin
Mia, Michelle, Dayton, Gary, Erica, and Daphne

Bug Hunt
Dayton and Daphne sure love adventures, and this one was no different. We sang "We're going on a bug hunt... gonna catch some crawly ones... I'm not scared... what a beautiful day!" (adapted from Dora). Mia and Erica had these bug catching containers that my kids loved, and now I want to get some.

Erica and Mia putting a bug in Daphne's containerDayton showing me his bugs;
he gave them a leaf for food
We found ants, pill bugs, a moth, and a beetle
Looking under a stone for some fresh grub
When the sun went down, we caught some fireflies!
We stared intently at the containers as
the three fireflies lit up every so often
