Summer vacation has officially begun! And with that, First Grade is in the books! Another school year is over, how fast did that go?!?
Great job Braelyn!!

- We were heading back home from the pool after our get together with the Grodacks and Neumans:
Me: "Did you guys have a lot of fun?"
Kohl: "Yes!"
Maddy: "No…"
Me: "What? You didn't have fun?"
Kohl: "I had a lot of fun!"
Maddy: "I didn't."
Me: "Why not Maddy?"
Maddy: "I only had one fun."

| Doesn't look fun at all, does it? |
Have a great weekend!
