Father's Day

June 14 was Flag Day. I didn't get a flag selfie that day. Oh well.

 

June 15 was Father's Day. I also didn't get a flag selfie but there wasn't a flag on our lawn that day. 

We did get a picture of Jeremy and Jr. together while Jeremy wore his tie that Jr. gave him many many years ago.

Jeremy requested taco salad for dinner and the kids made him a card.

Nichole created the front. I just love how adoringly the little penguin is looking up at his Daddy.  

 

June 15 was also National Electricity Day. Jet went around pretending like he was shocking everyone (electricitying them). He's so cute.

The Day They Came Home

I had to get up early in the morning to pick up the boys from FSY the day they finished. We came home by way of the windmills in Spanish Fork. It was Global Wind Day and National Electricity Day, June 15. While I was gone, Lucky and Daddy took some bonding time together and went rock hounding on Nature Photography Day. They took choco rocks with them. They did not get the obsidian and chocolate mixed up.

I learned there are different kinds of obsidian. Besides regular they also found mahogany, and snowflake.

When we all got back, Jeremy and I had our own bonding time celebrating National Megalodon Day by watching Meg 2: The Trench. 

It was also Smile Power Day. You can't tell me these smiles don't have power.

Planned Power Outage... Again

We knew the electricity was going to be off again one day so we had some fun. Instead of going out that day, we stayed in and played games and made shadow puppets on the wall.

 

Lucky is pretty good with his shapes. Jet absolutely loved seeing them and interacting with them.

 

Even when the power came back on we kept playing and enjoyed ourselves.

Family time! Woohoo!

National Electricity Day 2020

June 15 was National Electricity Day. We went around that day reminding people to turn lights off when leaving a room (and getting credit for a Summer reading activity). Lucky had fun running around turning off all the lights, even in rooms where there were other people.

After the kids went to bed, Jeremy and I watched the movie, The Current War, about Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse competing about DC (direct current) or AC (alternating current).

On a separate but related note we laughed when we realized that in a matter of days we watched three different movies with Tom Holland (who played Spider-man) and actors who were also in Marvel movies with him. Dolittle with Robert Downey Jr. who played Iron Man. The Current War with Benedict Cumberbatch who played Doctor Strange. Spies in Disguise with Karen Gillan who played Nebula. What made it even funnier was we then watched Avengers: Infinity War which had all those people in it. And then we watched Onward with Tom Holland and Chris Pratt who played Star Lord.
Man, Tom Holland has been busy.
