The Party

We rarely have parties for the kids (we ARE the party!), but I consented as Charlie will be at school in the fall.  He's been in classes with some of these kids since Kindergarten and while he's excited about the fall, he'll miss seeing his buddies regularly.
So the much requested Epic Nerf Battle took place at Ft. Washington State Park.
 

 

Machen finished his last final in the morning, so was glad to join the fun

 

 

 

Charlie is 11!

Charlie turned 11 last weekend!
Amelie was so excited about her Dartt Demaree gift of taped money.  :)



Boys and shoes.
 

The big gift arrived a day late, but he was a good sport about it.
We're REALLY into Nerf guns. 

Retreat 2016

Church Retreat 2016 over Memorial Day Weekend (only 1 night!)
Wonderful memories made!
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This little guy and I bonded YEARS (!) ago when he was in my
2 year old Sunday School class.  Love him!

Visit

David and Annie popped in for a lovely but too short visit last weekend.
Because of all the rain, games were canceled but it wasn't actually raining.  :)
We enjoyed a walk along the Wissahickon and lots of games.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Talent Night!

Calvary's Talent Night!

Amelie and friends did a lively dance

 

These guys stole the show as usual and caused Charlie
to jump out of his seat.  :)






 Demaree and Amelie performed "Tomorrow" from Annie.
Amelie's dream of being a "pop star" is very real.  She loves the stage!
