Pool Party

Last Friday, Lanie came to visit.  She graduated high school later that night!
We caught up with her.  Noah played some piano.  
I took the boys to an end of year swim party at a friend's house.  
The pool was cold so they didn't swim.  
But they did pig out.  

And found lots of things to play with.  


 A teacher stopped by.  
The kids were cute.  Playing till late.  

Noah found a piano in the house and played a bit.  
Honey came by for a visit that night.  
The girls helped Ariel finish packing.  Have a great weekend!

Noah’s Nice Notes

Last Wednesday, Eli watered the plants.  
The packing continued.  
Eli went to swim at Dylan's house.  
Last Thursday, it didn't seem like Ariel was any closer to finishing.  
Noah came home with this from school.  
All the kids wrote nice things about him!
Ariel loved her dinner.  
Noah had to record himself playing piano for his class.  




That night, Heather and Eli rode around.

Fifty Nifty United States

Last Monday was the 4th grade states day.  The kids marched in to the Fifty Nifty United States song.  
Then they gave facts about their states to anyone who would listen.  Noah told us all about Alabama. 
Eli had Wisconsin.  
We walked around and heard lots of fun facts.  Of course we had to visit Vicky.  
Eli had a map too.  
Ariel came by.

Then we played a bit.  


Back to packing.  
It's big Hedwig holding little Hedwig.  
Last Tuesday, Noah had piano.  
Ariel ate her Chipotle outside.  
Aden is taking a course at Syracuse this summer.  We listened to the orientation.  
It's going to be a great experience for him.  He will be a real college student for a few weeks.  
Eli alway outside cruising.

Soccer Champs

Last Sunday was the last day Muppet Vision was open at Disney World.  It's sad.  It's one of the last things Jim Henson worked on.  We always loved it.  
It was also the day of the soccer tournament.  They play 2 games and if they win both, they go to the championship.  They won the first game!
We had some time before the second game.  
The second game got off to a good start.  

Eli was watching.  
We won the second game!  There's Dylan.  
Then we played in the championship game.  
We were up 2-0 for most of the game.  
They other team scored two quick goals late to tie.  We then went to a shootout.  They had to pick 5 players to take shots on the goal.  
We won!


Yay!
Noah proud in his medal.
The Champs!

We got back and Ariel and Cece were painting Ariel's camp drawers.  
I then took them to Dick's to get Ariel's sports stuff for camp.
That night we had dinner with Ali and Todd at Isaac Newtons.  
It was nice catching up.  
Some late night playing and packing.  
We watched the Tony's along with R2D2.
