June 2016

We spent a fun afternoon swimming at the lake with Ruth and her crew.

Lincoln and Kate both swam on the Tremont Swim Team.  The both swam really well and had such great coaches.  They were so encouraging, cheering the kids on and teaching them to focus on improvement rather than winning.

May 2016

May is always a busy, but fun month.  Field trips, concerts, field day – I love it.  It’s fun to see how far the kids have come and to see the fruit of all their efforts for the school year, as well as to just enjoy doing some fun things with them.

I can’t remember if it was Mother’s Day or Father’s Day, but we got to attend Brooks’ dedication.

Kate chose to be Laura Ingalls Wilder for her wax museum project.  Kate with her teacher, who was also amazing and a great fit for Kate.  I can’t say enough good about the teachers at Dee-Mack.  They have all been outstanding.
