Saturday our day started out with Jeff & I heading over to Rustic Roots, where Charlie works, in Rock Hill for the big opening of the treehouse in their front yard. It really was very cool, although Charlie was not working that day. Jeff actually climbed up inside it and said it was very cool – had a loft & a fire pole & some little built in furniture. You have to look pretty close to see Jeff standing out on the balcony. There were tons of kid in there by the time we left – I am so happy that the day was so successful.

Late that afternoon we were at June’s dance recital. They just did an amazing job. So proud of her!

Friday evening Jeff & I were at First Presbyterian Church in Gastonia to hear Clara and the Choraliers’ final local performance of the year. This week they head to churches in Charleston and Beaufort to present the same show. As always, it was incredible. And with the acoustics in the church, it just blew me away. So proud of these kids.

Afterwards, with our star 🙂

Jeff got a couple of pictures while he was outside walking around checking if there was any storm damage last week, and getting limbs picked up out of the driveway. We are loving the new bench he just made a couple of weeks ago.

It’s been almost a year since Adam finished up 8th grade at Sullivan Middle School and was named Male Student Athlete of the Year, and just this past Thursday Jeff & I got over to see his name on the banner hanging in the gym there. That was very cool. The football team was having a meeting in the gym, so we got to talk to his former coach a bit, and that was fun. We were proud all over again 🙂

This is the puzzle I started on last month when Jeff was in Indiana. It was harder than I thought it would be, so he got home long before I finished it up :-). Pretty, though, I thought.

Friday night I headed to Augusta to spend the night with Sherri and Gary, and then early Saturday morning we hit the road to Athens to see their granddaughter Lynleigh in her only dance competition of the season. During the Parents Showcase before the first competition she cracked her pelvis, so this was the only time she got to dance all year. She did a wonderful job – all of the girl from her studio did – and her three dances all received Platinum awards. For one of them, she was the one who went up to get the award. It was so exciting and we were so proud.

Our star after the show was over. So precious.

Last Thursday was Mason’s final chorus program as a Clover Middle School student – he says his last ever, as he isn’t singing in high school. It was kind of emotional for me, with him being our youngest one. They did a great, great job. He is on the back row, far left.

Got this picture of our sweet kid afterwards…

Clara had quite a fan club at the show on Sunday to watch her on stage. Here are a couple of pictures from afterwards.

This past weekend was the CHS Choraliers annual spring program, and this year they did “Something Rotten.” It was so funny, and Clara and all of the kids just did a fantastic job. The dial on my camera got moved to the wrong setting, so I didn’t get many good pictures of her on stage, but did manage to get these two.
