| June was the end of another successful school year and the beginning of another exciting summer. Ron bought a new toy for his barn (see June photos) and is quite happy about putting a new electronic ignition system in his Chattanooga Chrysler. He's currently debating whether he'll be going to Carlisle or the Sterling Renaissance Faire this next weekend. Laura found TWO coaches for the Lego Robotics team: Laura herself and Ryan's mom will be cocoaching the Middle School team this fall. Laura's also keeping busy with the Canandiagua Botanical Society and planning the August 14th 50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration for her parents. Jeffery finished up his Elementary 5th grade school year with style receiving a half dozen awards. He has relocated his sleeping to the barn with Jake and enjoys playing the 1981 Atari game system that Grammy Ouimette and Cousin Erik provided him. Bethan finished up 2nd grade with a "perfect" report card and has been quite busy with a social life of play dates and book clubs. Thomas has FINALLY mastered the big boy underwear but has reverted back to his nonexistant sleeping habits of his first 18 months. Jake has a few new "lacosse sticks" for folks to throw his balls for fetching. He's also been a very good dog for staying well within his home boundries. |
