Busy Spring

Summer is nearly here as it's Memorial Day weekend already.  Have had a busy spring.

Nearly done with my kindergarten year and have crammed loads of Spanish language in my brain, along with math, science, history, music, and gym.  Turns out kindergarten has been a lot of fun and have made some good buddies along the way.  Just 12 days of school left till summer vacation.

Aunt Margaret and Mom coached Michael, me, and 8 other runners this spring in track and field.  Got to do the baseball toss, running and standing long jumps, dashes of 50, 70, and 100 meters, plus relays with the team.  Now have a spiffy new collection of hard-earned ribbons.

Graduations galore - cousin Pat from college and Colleen, Joe, and Maggie from high school.  Upon completion of Pat's ceremony I wisely announced to all that "there is one launched into the world.  Margaret and Tim have 3 to go."   (See pic below)

Summer soccer is kicking into gear.  PSI friend Karl is on the team and Mom is coaching.


Grandpa Turns 80

My Grandpa turned 80 years old....can you even imagine?!?!  We all gathered for a brunch.  Here's the whole gang.  I hope I live to be 80 surrounded by such good looking loved ones!

Spring Break 2012

Had a great spring break this year - 10 days off school and saw load of friends for playdates - Sonja and her sisters, cousin Michael, Luke and Angelina, Bjorn, Karl, Liam, Avi, and Jack.  Here is me with Liam on a very sunny day, and me sitting on my dad, and me as a ninja at Luke's house.
