Long overdue #2 -- this time its an UPDATE

Its a sad, sad commentary that its JUNE and I've only posted 10 blog posts this year.   So much has happened since the last time I posted.  Here's a rundown of what's been going on in our neck of the woods.

Garrett played his first ever basketball games with his team at SoHo

 

His Kinder teacher went on maternity leave. 

 

I ended up with 2 day jury duty and practically had a heart attack over the stress.

Garrett's class went on a trip to the zoo (and I got to chaperone)

My Grandpa passed away over mother's day weekend so I took a trip home. It was a sad event, but it was also great to see everyone. 
Sandra had her  baby, who was as beautiful as expected.

got lots of things he's been asking for as birthday presents, including a telescope and camera.

 Garrett turned 6 and had a Mario birthday party with his closest friends.

 And cupcakes at school to boot.

 Garrett graduated from Kindergarten.  Goodbye SoHo, helllllooooo summer fun!

Summer fun has included washing cards, obstacle courses, lizard catching, the beach, and just lots of fun times with very little schedules to follow.

On top of all of THAT, I did the Merril Down and Dirty Mudrun with Leanne and Val  (who are both moving to Virgina this summer-boo) and a Sprint Triathlon.  Read about the later one here on my new fitness/healthy lifestyle blog.   Happy summer!
