June–Where did it go????

Jacob graduated from Kindergarten the first week of June.

Here he is on his first day back in August of 2010.

What a difference – he is at least 3 inches taller and his confidence is through the roof! We are so proud of our first grader!

Here he is walking home with some of his school buddies.

Later in June Will and Bella went to a Daddy-daughter sock hop up at the church.   I happened to have a lot of red felt left over from a crafting fail a few years back.  Of course I had to do a SHELTIE skirt instead of a poodle.  This circle skirt was an easy no-sew project, I loved how it turned out.

Then we headed to Austin for cousin Luella’s third birthday party.  It was a splash pad birthday party at Bartholomew park. This is the same park I grew up playing in, so it was fun to see my kids enjoying it. Of course it is mostly different play equipment and all that.  Evidently it was all coated in lead paint, and also very dangerous wonderful things like merry-go-rounds and metal slides that burn your behind are no longer cool.
