Clara’s Junior Prom

Last Friday we headed out to Lindee & Jackson’s house to see Clara all dressed up for her Junior Prom. She looked absolutely beautiful – no prejudice involved. Here are Jeff & me with her…

…and Addie taking her picture. Addie was sick, so she didn’t want to get too close to her, but couldn’t let her go off on her big night without coming to see her.

Frankie’s Soccer Game

After she came up to see Clara perform with the Choraliers, Sherri spent the night here, and the next day we headed up to King to see Zollie’s 4-year-old granddaughter Frankie play soccer. We went early, though, to spend some time at their house visiting with her and her big sister Mary and cousins Heath and Oliver. I took pictures of her being a monster, and then she asked me to take a picture of the real her :-), so I got this one.

Later on the soccer field. So cute and so much fun to watch.

The Addams Family, Part 2

One final picture of Clara on stage. It was just such a fun show.

I got this picture after the performance of The Addams Family of Clara with her aunts and uncles who were there to cheer her on. She had quite the fan club that that afternoon.

The Addams Family

Weekend before last was The Choraliers spring performance of The Addams Family. It was really good. Clara was one of the ancestors – they looked like ghosts to me – and here are a couple of action photos of her during the show. She is right in the middle of both of these pictures. It really was an amazing show.

Adam the Helper

The same Saturday that Sherri & Amber came up, Adam had called to see if he could come over and do some work to earn money for him to go on vacation. He is an excellent worker – he & Jeff got twenty stumps, I think it was, dug up, and gathered up a lot of downed branches to put in the burn piles, and here I got a picture of him digging sand and rocks out of the creek so that hopefully it will flow better. He was a huge help.

June at Work

June has started her first ever real job – working at the Peach Tree, making milkshakes and serving ice cream. When Sherri, Amber, and her kids were in town to go to our church yard sale a couple of weeks ago we headed there after they finished shopping to grab some lunch, and I got this picture of June at the milkshake machine. She seems to really like it, and my peach milkshake was delicious!

Mia and Callie

Catching up on old pictures now. I got this one a couple of weeks ago when I went up to Nathan and Diane’s house – Andy & Amy’s son – to pick up barbecue that I’d bought from their son Daniel’s Trail Life troop. These are his oldest and next youngest sisters, Mia and Marissa, hanging out while his mom & I visited. I can’t remember where Daniel and his youngest sister, Callie, were at the time, but they are all just cute as can be.
