Daily recap

Today, we relocated to the Bontornos’ house, where Kevin worked while Kelsey, Ashley, and the eight kids explored a park, flew kites, and found a big sundial, then came back to play board games and eat dinner, which ended with some homemade pie courtesy of Kelsey’s baking skills.

Highlights

  • Flying kites

It turns out that the top of the playground equipment is the best place to fly a kite.
  • Finding a big sundial

Grayson found this cool sundial where you stand on the current month and your shadow points to the current time.
  • Board games

Of course, Kelsey baked pies for dessert.
