had a summer fun planning session, watched a few episodes of phineas and ferb to get us in the summer mood, attempted the first picnic of summer on our deck but it was too windy and abe said it was a pathetic picnic, and last but not least, built a chain reaction! abe has been interested in rube goldberg and his chain reactions--see a cool example here
it took fifteen tries and all afternoon, but they didn't give up, and finally they got the marble in the cup!
