The Settlemoir Family Blog: End of Summer Fun

We packed a lot of fun into the last three weeks of summer.

Curt got out our little bounce house for the boys one afternoon of his vacation.

Caden attended his first fishing clinic at Washington Park with a friend at the end of July. The friend's nanny sent me this photo of Caden with one of his many fish. He had a lucky morning and a great time.

Following Kieran's birthday celebration, Cole had a birthday party to go to at Island Bay. We all tagged along even though it was a very cool summer day and none of us braved the water.

Cole and his best buddy, Gavin--They had a blast together at Rachel's party.

Cole and Gavin had too much fun to mind the cold air.

We had a fun summer at Island Bay Yacht Club.

Caden and Saurya enjoyed the fishing clinic so much the first time that they wanted to go again. This time, Cole and Kieran gave fishing a try.

Cole caught...a leaf.

The fishing instructor (because I know NOTHING about fishing) helped Kieran catch this little fish.

Cole and his fish!

At the beginning of August, Nana and Papa asked if they could borrow the boys for a couple days. Sure!

Kieran enjoyed having the baby pool to himself.

Caden was able to meet one of his favorite authors, Tom Angleberger at the local Barnes & Noble. My friend, Michelle took Caden and her son, Noah. Sounds like it was a fun event!

The weekend before school started, Cole hosted his first sleepover. His best buddy, Gavin spent the night. If Cole and Gavin had their way, sleepovers would happen every weekend at each others' houses.
