Summer Camp

Some photos from Camp Cho-Yeh... better late than never. View the full album here.

Looks like my red plumeria is finally going to bloom this year.

Good stuff

It's Always the Game

Thomas finally gets to use his waterproof Uno game!

Fun times!

Thanks for the great weekend of fun, food, sun, and cards :)

The Boys are back in town

Charles and Thomas are back from their fun-filled week at camp. By all accounts they had a great time and were at no time homesick for Houston.

Charles won the “Leave No Trace” award for always picking up his clothes and making his bed every morning without being asked.




Thomas won the “Ironman” award for having the strongest faith.









The boys and I get to go back in July for an overnight so that they can show me all the fun stuff they did (sorry mom… guys only).

1st Grade Awards

Harvard's 1st Grade held their end-of-year awards this morning. Thomas' name was called out several times including the coveted "perfect attendance" :)

Baseball Season Comes To An End

The Giants' loss of their first playoff game marked the end of Thomas' first, and Charles' last season in the "coach pitch" league.

Overall the team did okay. But the boys really did well this year and had a lot of fun. And although neither the boys nor the team broke any records, we do have some bragging rights when it comes to team batting averages:

1. Charles .867
2. Enrique .818
3. Thomas .800

Fair Calf!

First calf from our commerical heifer bought at the fair last October. Since it was born on Jennifer's birthday, and IF we named our calves, this would be JEN-O. Very cute.

Snow day!

Actually more sleet than snow, and it seems to have come down slightly sideways. I think we had more snow LAST February. Cold out there!
