Fairport Lacrosse Tournament - June 11, 2011

Noah and Grace both played in the Fairport Lacrosse Tournament today. Noah played three games in the morning, and Grace played three in the afternoon. Both of them had a good time. The weather was beautiful - warm and breezy, no rain, and kind of overcast so we weren't sitting in the blazing sun all day. Fun!

5th grade social - June 10, 2011

After the moving up ceremony, the PTSA threw a super social for the kids. They had carnival games, PE games, dinner, and then a dance with a DJ. I "chaperoned" the dance and took pictures much to Grace's chagrin. It was fun to see the kids having such a good time! Here is Grace with one of her best friends, Rosie.

5th grade moving up ceremony - June 10, 2011

Grace "moved up" from 5th to 6th grade yesterday. The school did a great job with a nice ceremony (they even played "Pomp and Circumstance") honoring all the 5th graders for various achievements. Grace won the Citizenship Award which is the highest honor bestowed on one fifth grader at each elementary school. Her name is inscribed on a plaque that hangs in the school forever!!

We are very proud of Grace!

Longaberger event at Yankee Candle in Deerfield, MA - June 9, 2011

Grace and I traveled with my friend Jeanine and her daughter Emily to Massachusetts for a Longaberger basket event at the Yankee Candle flagship store in West Deerfield. We all made our own baskets and shopped, of course! The girls each won a door prize which was a make-your-own-candle and wax hand coupon. They had great fun doing each activity. We filled Jeanine's Prius with our purchases of candles and baskets. It was a fun girls only road trip!

Noah's lacrosse tournament at Aquinas - June 5, 2011

Blue Fins Banquet - June 4, 2011

The end of the year banquet for Grace's swim team, the Webster Blue Fins, was held last week. This is a picture of Grace receiving an award. Standing next to her is Alec,

her "boyfriend" since January. The club did a nice job recognizing all the swimmers.

Memorial Day 2011

Stacy invited us over for a barbecue on Memorial Day. Noah sat with Charlie at his picnic table and helped him with his umbrella. It went up and down, up and down, all afternoon long.

Thanks to Stacy and Brian for a great meal!
