End of the season


Scrimmage for the girls followed by a movie at plate.  This year the movie was The Rookie.  So fun to sit outside under a sky full of stars watching a movie






Movie date


We love this theater! What's not to love? Reclining seats, popcorn and movie with this crazy group of people 
My BFG  was in deck for the movie a surprisingly funny movie we all enjoyed.   Of course I enjoyed the popcorn too.

Paint night fundraiser

 



Tonight was a fundraiser for our local special olympics team.  I do not like to paint. I've been known to just not look at walls in order to ignore the obvious need of new paint they require. and when I finally decided  (after years of ignoring) to paint I whine and complain the whole time.  Painting is tedious and putzy and if you mess up you will have to look at it until the next decade when you once again paint.  So why you may wonder would I attend a paint night.  Sigh, because obviously I don't know how to say no. Especially when it's for a great cause.  Of the few of these I have participated in Marcy makes it painless.  she has unending patience and the right mix of humor. It is sorta fun when all is said and done.

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.

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.
