Just an Update
We are rapidly approaching summer vacation and the mid-point of the year (hurrah!), so here's an update on what the kids are doing.
Debbie is finished with school, is signed up for classes at Tri-C and, in the space of a week, has painted three bedrooms (yes!). She was hired twice this year by the Performing Arts Academy at a local high school to assist with sewing costumes, and has continued riding and working at the barn. She's looking forward to a summer at the pool, teaching and guarding and having fun in the sun. Here, she's stealing a snuggle from the baby.
Lewis is almost done with school and is looking forward to lifeguarding this summer. In cool shades, no less. He recently participated in a competition with his Explorer post involving various law enforcement agencies from all over the state. He was selected for Honor Guard in his post, and marched in the annual parade for fallen officers in downtown Cleveland. Here he is ready for the parade in his Honor Guard uniform.
Margie had a great year of school and is excited about swimming the summer away! Here she is dreaming of many more ice cream cones to come.
Jared's imagination runs wild and he is always creating things out of practically nothing. Here he is with a house he built for a very small friend.
Edie is starting to read well and is enjoying finding new books to explore. Here she is with some brothers, reading outside.
Natty is setting trends in the fashion world. Here is is modeling the latest: red plaid paired with Elmo camo.
Ellie is, well, what can we say? She's just cute and that's all there is to it.
Jay is putting in the garden; he's a happy man when he can putz around with his seedlings. Having the kids help is a plus, too. Except they are too busy eating popsicles to be much help.
Hope you all have a great summer!
