It was the annual RACE Day fundraiser at Lucia and Rose’s school today. They girls had fun with their friends.
RACE Day
School Pictures
The girls had their school pictures today and the picture company sent us their pics from previous years. I love seeing how they’ve changed.
First Day of School 2024
Friday Fun
Father’s Day
For Father’s Day today Lucia, Rose and I enjoyed a very hot bike ride to Dairy Queen then did some light grilling on our “new” grill scavenged from our neighbor’s garbage. At least once or twice a summer we do te bike ride to Dairy Queen – about 4 miles each way.
Adventureland
As an add-on for Rose’s birthday, we went to Adventureland. It was Lucia and Rose’s first time going there and the first time they had been to an amusement park for a couple of years. They had a blast on the rides and with their friends.
Happy Birthday, Rose!
Rose turned 9 today and we had a traditional family party this evening. Walking Tacos is the dinner of choice for Rose’s birthday and her cake this year was a Twix cake – she doesn’t always like traditional cake.
Weekend Wrap-Up
End of the year fun
HopeKids
This past year Lucia and Rose attended HopeKids Sunday school at our church. They thought it was OK and probably better than going to church every Sunday. Susan and I volunteered once per month as leaders.
Rose’s Music Concert
This evening was Rose’s 3rd grade choir concert. It’s always enjoyable. Rose loves it and spends the weeks leading up these concerts singing the songs for herself and anyone who will listen.
Tumbling Troupe
Lucia and Rose are members of the Tumbling Troupe at their dance and tumbling studio. They had a few practices and have been performing at a few high school basketball halftime breaks. Afterward the kids and families take over a local restaurant for dinner or a treat.
