Drummer boy
This kid is home with conjunctivitis, but that isn’t stopping him from letting his creative juices flow. He designed a drum set this afternoon.
Month: August 2016
Saints Game
Jake’s employer planned a company outing and employees were allowed to bring a +1. We had 7th row seats right to the left of home plate and watched the home team win by more than 10 runs. It was a fun night out!
Quotables from #4
Shecklet #4 to Uncle Tony, very matter-of-factly at the office today: “I was borned in the ambulance.”
Applesauce helper
Shecklet #4 got to spend some time with Nana today – solo. Their project for the afternoon was making applesauce. Yum!
Jumping around
We met Aunt Kari at an indoor jump and play place. Shecklet #3 isn’t in the photo because she was off making new friends 🙂
Green
We had celebratory cupcakes for dessert tonight in honor of Shecklet #3’s first day of kindergarten. The color was so bold, it stained lips, tongues and fingers!
This was Shecklet #4Â in her pink tractor cart earlier in the day when we she selected the cupcakes. (We met Nana for breakfast at Hy-Vee after sending the other three Shecklets off to school.)
1st day 2016-2017 (part 2)
My mini-me, Shecklet #3, is off to her first day of kindergarten!
Here she was at the end of the day. Her response to my asking how the day was, “Can I go back tomorrow?!?” I think that means she had a great 1st day!
Rain delay turn rain out
My parents went to the Twins game tonight. (Hot, muggy day today.) The dark clouds moved in and opened up. Â Lucky for them, they had an umbrella and seats under the canopy!
Civic duty – primary
Took the girls with me to vote in the primary today. We were thanked by the volunteers for taking the time to show up. Our vote really makes a difference!
