Prep for VBS

The girls are working together to make decorations for VBS and are getting along for the most part!

 

Dairy Store

Maggie and I took a break to get ice cream at the Dairy Store on East Campus.  My cup was free with a coupon from my student teacher.

 

Mulch

This year the girls helped me with mulch around the house and garden.  We spread 80 bags of brown mulch in the garden area and 30 bags of black mulch around the perimeter of the house.  Philomena and I were each able to fit 20 bags of mulch in our cars so we only had to make 3 trips to Walmart!  Maggie helped me plant some new hostas that I bought to replace ones that had died and I planted bell peppers, zucchini, butternut squash, cantaloupe, cucumbers, and tomatoes in the garden.  Now to watch it grow (and pull weeds)!

 

Mother's Day

We went to Gringo's for lunch on Mother's Day with mom and grandma.  Philomena got me a bouquet of lego flowers with some candy.  Maggie painted a picture of me.

 

Unified Track

Both girls were student managers for Unified Track this year.  Maggie received her Scholar Athlete patch with a 3.9 GPA and an award for most willing to help.  Philomena received an award for most organized and an award for scholar athlete with a 4.1 GPA.  She already got her patch her freshman year.

Choir Concert

Grandma, Maggie and I enjoyed Philomena's choir concert.  High School music performances are so good!

 

Music Letter

Philomena completed her project and lettered in Music this year!
