July: Sentence a Day

Hello! How was your weekend? Ours was pretty good! The weather finally cooled off and we even had a little rain yesterday. We were busy with baseball games for Hayden, dance workshops for Hadley and did a little back to school shopping as well.

I can’t believe July is already over! I’m sharing my sentence a day recapping the month. We started at the beach and ended the month thinking about getting back to school.

7.1.21

On July 1st, we were still on vacation in Isle of Palms, SC; we had a great vacay!

On the 8th, we hung out at home most of the day, ran a few errands to get Hadley ready for camp, and I had my monthly facial!

7.13.21

While Hayden was at golf, I did a little back to school shopping for me and picked out my teacher planner for the upcoming school year at Michaels.

I treated myself to a new purse; I’d been wanting a messenger bag for quite some time.

7.15.21

I had summer school while Hayden had his last day of golf camp followed by school with me for a bit while our new basement floors were installed.

7.16.21

On the 16th, my errands included picking out a basement rug, followed by state tournament baseball for Hayden.

7.17.21

Yay! On the 17th, I picked up Hadley from camp and went to Hayden’s baseball games.

After summer school, I enjoyed lunch with some friends, and then went back to school shoe shopping for the kids.

7.22.21

On the 22nd, I spent lots of time at home getting things done, and then both kids had an ortho appointment. (After a year, Hayden got his appliance out and his bottom braces.)

7.23.21

This day was my last day of the summer “with nothing,” so we hit up the pool for most of the day, and then I started watching Bethenny Frankel’s Big Shot (and loved it!)

7.24.21

I had typical Saturday errands, went to Trader Joe’s for a few odds and ends and flowers followed by baseball games for Hayden.

7.25.21

While the rest of us were at Hayden’s ball games, Hadley was living her best life at the lake.

I helped with freshman orientation while the kids were at 6th grade orientation, and we later met Trav’s brother and his kids out for dinner.

On the 29th, we met up with some neighborhood friends for a water balloon fight; the kids had so much fun.

7.30.21

On Friday, I was home most of the day, the kids went to pool with Trav and their cousins in the afternoon, and Hadley had a dance workshop in the evening while Hayden had a basketball game.

7.31.21

We finished up the month with Hayden having two baseball games, Hadley had a three hour dance workshop, I got a pedicure and then took Hadley back to school clothes shopping.

Overall, we had a good month. (A few days warranted more than one sentence 😉 July is a difficult one for me. June is all fun and games, and July brings a sense of urgency to savor the summer moments while starting to think about school.

I hope to be back tomorrow with my Prime Purchases for the month and a special post on Wednesday.

I hope your week is off to a great start!
