Chalk for Joe

Last Wednesday, Amy and I took an early morning walk.  A big tree had fallen at the school.  If it went the other way it would have smashed the new playground.  

I mentioned that our principal left.  He liked to write chalk messages to the kids.  The school asked all the kids to write goodbye messages to him.  

Ariel went to Hershey Park with camp.  

More pics with boys!

There's Eva!

I went to the driving range.  

That night, Amy and I had dinner with Jackie and Marc and Rachael and Dave at La Stalla.  

 

Musical Family

Last Monday, I went to the gym after work.  

Noah had piano and Aden had guitar.

Last Tuesday, Aden made chicken cutlets.  

I had my guitar lesson.  

Noah and I did a Mark Rober box.

Camp pics!

 

Biking to the Point

Last Sunday, I went for a run.  Passed by a cool motorcycle.

People waiting to play pickleball.

Steve and Diane next door and the twins and my dad went for a bike ride.

We went to the end of the island. About 2 miles. 

The boys did well.  It was the furthest they ever rode their bikes.  

Made it!

We went back and packed up and left.  We had been there for over a week and it was supposed to rain.  Time to head home. 

We got home right before it started pouring!

Playing the geography game. 

Camp pics!

 

Independence Day

It's an exciting Sunday night!  We have Ariel home for a couple of nights!  It's also the night before Aden's 18th birthday!!!

Last Saturday was the 4th of July!  I took the beach cart to the beach at 8am!  It was already hot out. 

I helped my neighbors set up the whole campsite including a grill!

A lot of other people were setting up too.

The moon!

That was a lot of work!

A quick pic from camp.

I went to see Jason at the water park.  

Aron and Eden were having fun!

We finally made it to the beach.  It was packed!

The boys had fun with Steven.

Like son...

Like mother!

Rocket Man!

It was only cool by the water.  We had to stand there.

We ate with the neighbors.

Then we left.  

Steven came with us.  

It was hot!

Pool time!

Eli wanted to make a cake for the 4th.

Cute!

Back to the beach for the fireworks.

Random giant fireworks all around us. 

Afterwards, we headed back.

Meanwhile in Nashville!
