Back to School

It's back to school time for the Kasparek family!  

Our handsome first grader...

 Our beautiful third grader...

 LOVE these kids!

I started my 11th year of teaching (3rd at Naples Elementary).  I am happy to be back in fourth grade this year. Thanks to my creative friends for the photo op!

Camp Adventure Dessertfest 2013

The Naples Camp Adventure Staff is AMAZING this year!  They put on a Dessertfest to rival all other Dessertfests!  The kids loved the Candyland theme!

 Emma's group skit

 Dessertfest is just as fun for these parents as it is for our kids! We sing along with the songs and know most of the skits. Here is a little walk down our Camp Adventure Dessertfest memory lane...

The Tortoise Vs. The Hare

It is one of our favorite weeks of the year: Missoula Children's Theater came to town! This summer's production was The Tortoise Vs. The Hare.  Over 100 kids auditioned on Monday morning! Emma was cast as part of Curly Burley Bunny's Posse and Camden was cast as one of Curly's Fan Club Members.

 Meagan came to the show :)

Kasparek Cousins

Our phenomenal family photographer (Lori) had a little cousins photo session at the City Park on our last full day in Iowa. My heart runneth over with all this Kasparek cuteness!

Tattoo and Family Time

Chris spent an afternoon at Crossroads Tattoos getting inked again. A tribute to his love of America, the Navy, the Hawkeyes, and family.

 Some of the Kasparek and Friedl family stopped by for swimming and catching up after Chris got his tattoo.

Carver Hawkeye Arena

We spent a day enjoying Iowa City. An omelet at the Hamburg Inn was at the top of my "Eating in America"list and it did not disappoint on Thursday morning.  After filling our bellies, we were off to tour the newly renovated Carve Hawkeye Arena.
