July Part 5 - Science Spectrum, Swimming, Hospice Grief Camp, and More!

7-25-17 Katie, Jacen's piano teacher, gave him a lego type grand piano for winning a game at his piano lesson.  He had a lot of fun putting it together with Mommy!  Then that afternoon we went to the library to turn in his Summer reading challenge log!!!
7-27-17 Jacen invited his friend Karson to play at Science Spectrum.  I think their favorite parts were the bubbles and making paper airplanes!!!!
7-28-17 Still making and throwing paper airplanes!  Then it was off to Sun N Fun to meet up with the Stanleys.  We also saw the Smiths!
Then that evening it was time for Hospice Grief Camp out at Spirit Ranch.  Jacen has gone for 4 years now.  I appreciate Hospice of Lubbock for providing this opportunity for children who have lost loved ones!!!
7-29-17 The next morning after dropping Jacen back off at Hospice Grief Camp, Kyle and I went to breakfast at Pancake House.  It was wonderfully yummy!!  Then for afternoon snack we went to Crave!!  We returned in time to see the Water War and Balloon release at Grief Camp.
