I HAVE NO EXCUSE

 I know, I have said it before and I will say it again… I am a bad blogger!  LOL  I really appreciate the ummm 5 of you who read my blog.
I really have no good excuse for not updating.  I suppose I could blame it on….

FROGS AT SCHOOL???

The day Miranda hoped would never come finally came.  Time to dissect a frog.  My camera battery died so I only got a few shots before they started.  It was so funny to watch them.

5TH GRADE SCHOOL PLAY

American Music Through Time

I can’t believe this was Miranda’s last school play at Garin.  She is off to middle school next year where I am sure she will participate in many school plays.

I hate to say it but she was not excited about her part in this play  or the costume she had to wear.  I think it shows in this photo.

…But at least she got to sit next to Sophia, who is one of her best friends.

Our friend Bryan Boettcher.  Grace just loves him and declared during his performance on stage “that is my boyfriend!” loud enough so everyone sitting around us could hear. =)

How many Truhes does it take to pick a cherry?

Twelve! 

This was our second annual cherry picking outing with Dave's folks. This time Dave's sister Debbie and her family joined us.  We had so much fun picking cherries then headed to Orword Resort for a late breakfast.  We always have so much fun hanging out with family.  I hope Mark, Corrine & Rylan can join us next year.
