So Hot Outside!!

We did a lot of indoor activities this week because it was so hot outside…


We played kickball in the basement of the church instead of playing a sport outside. After a little bit of review about what each team does at the different positions and which way we run around the bases, we had a very successful game. John L. and Gabe were particularly great at it.
On Wednesday we were supposed to go on the Glencoe Stroll and learn all about Glencoe, but we thought it was way too hot to be outside so instead we changed our plans and went to Northbrook Court. People have been begging to go there with Our Place all summer, so we finally went. First Katie got her make-up done by someone she knew that worked at the mall and she was very happy! Then we went into the Lego store which every single person was very excited about. Keenan bought a Lego building set which he started working on the second we got back to Our Place and he finished it in five minutes! We were all very impressed. Frank and Josh also bought some Legos and Matt bought some cool stickers at a toy store.
On Friday we went swimming at Frank’s house which was great for the hot weather. We had a huge group of people there which was very exciting. John M. spent the whole time spinning around in circles in the deep end. Mike talked about the Hulk a lot and Keenan talked about Disney movies. Derek continuously threw pool toys into the deep end and made Joey go get them, which he thought was hilarious, and Josh and Katie played catch for most of the time. It was an excellent day for the pool.
We only have one more week of the summer program left, but we know it will be a fun one!
