Summer!

Summer is here! We are loving it already! Due to snow make-up days our last day of school was Saturday!


Liesel decorated her classroom in red white and blue and served pancakes for breakfast.



Jaya and I helped decorate and eat a couple pancakes too.  It was a dirty job but somebody had to do it. 

Saturday night we went to Jackson Noftle's bike-a-thon/walk-a-thon to raise money for research about his disease Histiocytosis you can read about on his mom's blog here. We had a great time walking and talking. After we walked we ate dinner and watched my dad in the dunk tank.

What a great sport! He went in quite a few times! There were a lot of accurate throwing arms out.


Including a very cute granddaughter with a great arm like her mother!

They also got the Mayer, Jackson himself, the football coach from Connell, and one of Connell's greatest players who was responsible for a lot of football heartache around this town, Wiley Allred, Royal's coach, to take a turn. Great sports, all of them.



Here's Jackson taking his turn.   This was the face he made when his dad moved his little cousin about three feet from the target.



This is Connell's coach.
