Book Group reports

Our Jr. Literature Group had a presentation night for all the dads. Aaron is portraying Linus from Hostage Lands. He told us the story of Rusticus, a Roman soldier who changed.
Deborah was Queen Tiy from The Golden Goblet. She told us how Ranifer saved her parents' tomb from being robbed.

Field trip to Hartwick Pines

While I'm updating my blog with May pictures, might as well put in these pictures from a field trip to Hartwick Pines.
Deb learned how to measure the board feet of a log.
Aaron and Stephen practice sleeping in a lumberman's bed (minus all the fleas and ticks).
We had two rangers talk to us about the different trees in the forest.

Stephen's birthday

Since Nathan's birthday is coming up very soon, I thought I had better post Stephen's birthday pictures. Especially since it took place in May. Birthday pancakes of course.
Star Wars cake, of course.
Kit Fitsu fighting off some droids.
And presents of course!

Graduations

We had three graduations this spring. The first was my niece's graduation from high school in Illinois.
Second was our friend Teri's graduation from college! Hurray!
And last was Nathan's best friend Josh's high school graduation.
