A Sporty Week

The kids have had a busy week of basketball.  Max is taking a class one day a week for most of the summer.  The girls are taking a basketball camp at the local High School.  It is put on by the head coach of the girls varsity team and some of the varsity team members.  The are learning a lot and having a ball!  During the camp they break the girls into teams and scrimmage...the varsity girls are their coaches.  Emily's coach is 6'2"!



It's hard to tell, but that is Wayne in the background playing shortstop. He is playing on his company softball team again this summer. Last night they beat the number one team 12-11.

Partying Like a Sixth Grader



The Graduates

Today is the last day of school. I now have a 1st grader and 2 middle schoolers! I have been busily decorating for the after school celebration at our house. Here are my decorations before they get drenched by rain....keeping my fingers crossed.



First thing this morning was an all school assembly. Here are the 5th graders cheering.



Max and his buddies who he will miss a lot.

5th Grade Send Off Party

Today has been a very exciting day for Emily, Morgan and the rest of the 5th graders. The morning started off with all the 5th graders marching through the school.
Here is Emily's teacher leading the way.


After the parade they all went to the cafeteria for doughnuts and a surprise. Mr. Pronto was the famous PE teacher that the kids loved and had from Kindergarten through 4th grade. He retired last year but made a surprise appearance today....the kids were over joyed.
They had some fun outdoor games and then loaded the buses for cosmic bowling, pizza, soda, a slide show and signing of t-shirts.


Here is Mr. Pronto at the bowling alley
