Boo Bash

October 31, 2025

Happy Halloween!! Hoping we finally get some sunshine today! Yesterday was an awesome Boo Bash despite the cold, wet weather. My “Laughs a Lot” Care Bear was excited for the fun day!

Safety Patrol!

When I got to Boo Bash for my shift it was still misty raining but thankfully that cleared up by the time Samantha’s grade came out. It was COLD though! I was chilled to the bone in my full length puffer coat but it didn’t seem to bother my Care Bear in her shorts! They were too busy riding rides and playing games to be cold!

The 5th grade teachers fully committed to their trophy costume!

A successful BOO Bash!! Happy Halloween!

4th at the pool

July 11, 2025

We had a fun 4th of July up at the pool! Spencer was still at camp but the rest of us beat the heat in the water!

Thankfully both kids had a few friends up there!

One of the swim team coaches was running all sorts of fun games for the kids – and she was very good about getting everyone to participate! These girls especially had fun with them…

and won some prizes!

Of course there were splash contests! Maxwell, I mean Gerald, gave a good showing in the biggest splash!

As did Robert! Unfortunately, his ear drum didn’t cooperate. Ouch.

I made a very good showing in the adult smallest splash contest but…no picture of course.

I’ll just leave these here with no comment…

It was a fun day at the pool! The boys then played golf and I went home to make some peach cobbler with my all-American girl!

Happy 4th!

Happy Easter!

April 21, 2025

We had a wonderful Easter with the prettiest spring weather! The kids were happy to see the bunny brought some surprises…

and we missed Maxwell but he was having fun down at the beach with a friend!

We made to the 9:00 service at church and had great seats thanks to Robert and GJ!

Samantha learned not to lean on her bracelets during the prayer! ha!

We then had lunch up at the club. It was a blue sky bluebird day! Just perfect!

Happy Easter!

Valentine fun

February 17, 2025

What’s better than Valentine’s Day on a Friday? Valentine’s Day on a Friday with no school! Woohoo! The kids (well 2 of the 3 kids – Spencer is at the beach!) slept in and were happy to see a little treat waiting for them!
