1st Day of School 2016

We are back to school! Unfortunately, the flu hit me and I don't have any pictures of the Back to School Block Party or the Mud Run (both were HUGE hits!)

Here is Camden the 4th grader

Emma the 6th grader

I'm starting my 14th year of teaching and it's going to be an extra special one because Emma will be my social studies student for an hour each day :)

MCT Sleeping Beauty

It's one of our favorite weeks of the summer! Missoula Children's Theater came to town and this summer's production was Sleeping Beauty.

Camden was cast as a chivalrous palace guard

I've got my eyes on you!

Emma was cast as Young Sleeping Beauty. She was an unhappy young lady who wanted her parents to let her out of the palace to see the world.

Singing her duet with the Jester

The evil queen encouraging Sleeping Beauty to sit down and look at her spinning wheel

Chicago Heights Italian Fun!

Our final side trip of our summer vacation was to Chicago. We spent an awesome weekend with the Camilleri Leigh family celebrating Gabriella's baptism!

A toast with Madds

Chris, Camden, & Dave

Chris & Madds working on centerpiece flowers

A blessed day!

We were so happy to be a part of this special occasion!

Fifa & Chris

It's hard to see, but this is what a baptism after party looks like in the Camilleri front yard.

Sooooo much fun!

Iowa City 2016 - Part 2

Back to Iowa City for a few more days of fun!

I adore this picture of Emma & Bailey running through the sprinkler in the front yard

We took Grandma Rose out for dinner at a micro-brewery in Solon. Grandma stuck with her tried and true Busch Light :)

A reunion over coffee with my friend Mackenzie

We spent one HOT afternoon swimming at Uncle Joel and Aunt Nancy's new house. Uncle Joel had time for a quick beer before heading out to the golf course.
