Its helpful to come home from vacation and have the Monday be a holiday. It helped to ease us in and get time to catch up on some things before opening the work can of worms.
July 4
At the last minute I drove the kids to Sarah's house so they could swim and be together. I was able to sit outside on a beautiful day, drink coffee under an umbrella and just take in how sweet life is.
Amy and Colombo extended an invitation to their annual 4th of July gathering. It was a beautiful day to be out playing and enjoying summer.
July 5
Back to work after being gone a full week. Most of my life is spent behind the scenes in a support role. Very little of what I do gets noticed, unless I don't do it. So when I'm not around to take the office garbage out, I spend the next week swatting flies that gathered and bringing plants back from the brink. Most of what I do is not glamorous, but at least I know I'm needed. :)

Uncharacteristically, Aiden initiated a friends gathering. They had an afternoon together and we went to the UCONN dairy bar because...summer!
July 8
Avery was invited on an adventure on Cape Cod. Sarah's aunt and uncle have a home there and these two girls road tripped it there, all by themselves. I was so happy to see their faces when they called me from the beach. Such sweet girls and also crazy that they can just make vacation happen for themselves.

Back at home, Shaun, Aiden and I sat by a fire for a bit.
Soccer games and playscapes for the win.
