Sweet 16 for Sophia

Sophia hit the legal driving age and will get her license in a couple weeks.  It was good haul for her with shoes and clothes and some chocolate cake thrown in to sweeten the pot.

Settling into June....

 

 

The school year is done and the soccer and basketball are getting closer to wrapping up.  Grace had a Milwaukee tournament to end the season and Merrick played in a two day tournament near Howard.  We are spending plenty of time close to home as well with evening fires and general relaxation.  Grace and I made a drive back to Eau Claire and stopped to hike Granite Peak on the way.  Nice trails and we will plan on getting over there when the leaves are full peak autumn colors.

Memorial Day and More

 

Memorial day has been a little cool and overcast but the band marches on.  Ella Performed in the downtown parade and it was a substantial parade at that.  Grace played in the Appleton tournament and we wove our way over hill and dale through a maze of construction to get there.  Sophia finished off her High School Season and was named mvp for the team.  The overcast days eventually gave way to a rainy Saturday and keeping a promise we headed to the Chatterbox for some pool and pub grub to pass the afternoon
