I'm a big kid now.....

Today is the final day of science and engineering camp for Bam and Princess Fifi.
The campers will be spending the morning exploring the science museum and later they'll conclude with a farewell luncheon.
Sounds like fun!!
Except....… Camp starts at the exact same time as the soccer game!!
There is no way I could be in two places at the same time.........on different sides of the city!
Eeek....
Solution.... Bam and Fifi will take the city bus line to camp!
**BIG sigh**
We've rode the bus before and we become somewhat familiar with their scheduled stops.
ABQ is fairly easy to get around
With cellphones in hand, a bus map, the address, and some money----- I send them off.
(earlier in the week we drove the bus path to become familiar with the locations and stops)

It was a HUGE step towards more responsibility for my two babies, Bam and Fi.… a sort' of milestone (In my opinion)
They were very excited to be given the task of getting themselves downtown (Old Town) for their final day of camp.
-------------------
Meanwhile....Back on the soccer field, I could tell my little Sweetheart was feeling a little lonely at the early morning soccer game.
Cookie and I cheered her on throughout the game....… But we could tell she was missing her sis.

Cheer up honey

 After the game we headed downtown to meet up with Bam and Fifi.
I knew they made it to their destination via texts and calls.

Below are the pics they took from their BIG KID venture....

They decided to start off the morning right...
lucky for us we live walking distance to FRONTIER and
it's right next to the bus stop! 
FRONTIER has very tasty
Green chile and carne adovada handheld breakfast burritos.
Mmmm..... (the temptation must've been too much for them to resist)

Bam and Fi boarded an empty bus....
After several stops and go.........they've  arrived.
FINAL DESTINATION: Explora!!!

THEY DID IT!!
They make it to Explora....... (who says I was worried??)
They were waiting for US to get there!!!
I'm so relieved.... I wasn't nervous.
(okay, maybe just a LITTLE)

After we reunited..... we enjoyed the museum, with their hands on experiments, exhibits and some creatures.
Cookie singing to the lizard because
lizards like it...... (so she says)

Sweetheart tells her sister all about the soccer game....❤

After tons of science fun...... it was time to gather for the honorary private luncheon for the campers and their families.
Looks yummy

Super meal

Sweetheart is no longer feeling lonely now that we're all reunited.
 Mum loves all her smiling faces...

18 gallons of......... SUMMER FUN

Oh geez...there's nothing like busy fun filled summer days!!
The Persingerfive live for summer!!

There is nothing like FUN in the SUN with our schedule booked full of adventures, growing, playing, reading and enjoying family time.

The thing that bugs me most lately is the ever increasing gas prices.
Eeeekkkk!!!!!
That's not so fun...


We are beyond excited lately as we prepare for our summer holiday...

soccer game, day camp rush

Early start for us.....
                               Sweetheart and Fifi had an early morning soccer game.
(Click here for last week soccer blog or click here for the week before soccer blog)

We enjoyed a fantastic soccer games, my little fireballs of energy were absolutely amazing.
so energetic and powerful!!
Running here.....running there.
Kicking the ball...... Zoom..... across the field!!!
SCORE!!!


Excellent game girls!!!


Immediately after the game it was time to get Fifi and Bam to Sandia National Laboratories Engineering Science Camp. There was a slight traffic delay on our route but eventually we arrived as the kiddos raced to the front of the building in order to make it in time.

Sweetheart is in the lead as we race towards
the Science and Technology building

No problems as everything went well as if we didn't even skip a beat.
