So far we have gone to see "Finding Dory," gone bowling, went swimming at the aquatic center, gone camping in the backyard, finger painting in the backyard, are planning to host some play dates tomorrow, and we managed to fit in ice cream twice.

Good times
I took this week off of work since I am in between camps and needed a little down time. It's nice to get to hang out with the boys doing some of those summer fun things we usually do each year.

Onward to new adventures
Spending time at ISU today to sign a contract for the half-time post doc I'll start in August with Iowa Learning Farms. It's a relief to have an intended direction and concrete plan for my life after AmeriCorps.
I have not spent much time on this campus in the past, but it is far lovelier than I was prepared to give it credit for. I may have to give up some of my UIowa loyalty.

4th of July 2016
The night before the 4th, we let the kids camp in the back yard. They enjoyed hanging out with their friends Sadie, Molly & Sam. They enjoyed sparklers and charcoal snakes. The next day we spent the first half of the day in Osceola, watching the parade, enjoying the rides, and hanging with the Haubs.

Summer Sporting
Benji played soccer this summer, and Jack played flag football. They both enjoyed themselves and have decided to do flag football in the fall with the same group.

Benji's 2nd grade poetry celebration
Benji's 2nd grade class put on a poetry celebration for their families today. My eyes were only dry for half of that celebration. Miss Tigges has been a great teacher for Benj, and I'm grateful
for how well his year has gone. I can't think of a better way to spend our 14th wedding anniversary, than watching the lives we created joyfully be who they are.
