Playing outside

We have been enjoying a lovely cool summer this year, so the girls have been having lots of fun playing outside most days. 

Lizzy's Art Camp Performance

Lizzy had art camp last week and at the end, they had a performance. Lizzy even got a solo part!

Dallas with Grandma

We took Grandma to Dallas and saw the JFK memorial, the Old Red Museum, rode the Dallas tour bus,  went to the Dallas museum of art and played at Klyde Warren park, and took the McKinney avenue trolley. It was a lot of fun, but unfortunately, we forgot to take many pictures. 

Lizzy's Brownie awards party

Katie's Fifth Grade Graduation!

 Katie was chosen to be one of the MC's for the event! She did a great job of speaking out and remembering her lines!

Katie's two best friends from 5th grade - Isabela and Stephanie.

 Katie's 5th grade teacher!

Katie's classmate whom she helped learn English. Linh came to the USA mid-year and spoke no English. Katie's teacher assigned her to Katie she loved helping her learn new things! 

On the last day of school, all the students "clap out" the graduating 5th graders. Katie passes by at 48 seconds. Katie cried a bit, but when I went to get Lizzy, she was a blubbering mess between her sister leaving school and her teacher's retirement.
