July

July was mostly a month of being home and hanging out. 

* Charlotte loves cooking shrimp

* Gabe likes to take morning walks

* We did sparklers and small fireworks on the driveway like usual

* Zach went to Boy Scout camp, and one of the badges he worked on was robotics

* We took care of our neighbors' cats

* Abby came to visit

* Zach got a guitar from his friend

* Charlotte started tumbling classes

* We went to Ikea and Guitar Center

* I helped with band uniform fittings, and the boys started band camp

 

The rest of June

Charlotte slept in the RV during a lot of Lisa's visit

Gabe went shopping

We went to the movies

Boy Scouts are helpful

We gave the cats quick baths. They were not thrilled.

Date night

Japanese is still hard and very confusing.

A trip to the mall for Boba and Claire's

We made a cat cave under Charlotte's bed

We finally got out and made s'mores!
