Chenoa as Mary Poppins



 
Jay and his second family 


 
You were determined to participate in the community theaters production of Mary Poppins.  You had several parts in musical numbers and come home each night from practice with stories filled with laughter.   You stayed positI've through the practice schedule that was most weeknights and as it got closer hours in length.  You met new people, learned about being part of a production. I loved that you experienced such a positive encouraging activity.  You were surrounded by people who supported you ,shared your love of theater and encouraged you to be your best.  I look forward to your next acting adventure.

We dropped him off at camp a week ago.  He was pretty excited to be heading back to camp, this was his 3rd year.  Friday we made the long drive back to pick him up.  He was filled with stories ab I UT all his camp adventures.

Ghostbusters


 
Summer nights are just made for drive in movies. We were all excited to see the newest Ghostbusters movie. 

Going coconuts



 
A volunteer at bountiful baskets received a coconut in her basket she wasn't going to use it sons he gave it to these two.  We made a hole using hammer and nail. They were so excited to try coconut milk until the first sip.  It is safe to say they are not fans.  We broke the coconut open sent hey could see the inside and try coconut.

Happy Birthday Rosie

  
Her cake was a hit!  She loved the blue filling 



 
Some of her favorite people stopped to wish her a hapoy birthday, her day was made.

At the fair








 
July brings the county fair...a much anticipated event to this crew. (The fair isn't quite how I remember it as a child growing up in the 70's  today it's smaller bot quite as exciting)  There are rides, and games.  The animal barns, the horses are a favorite. And of course food, mini donuts and cheese curds just taste better at the fair.
