From Leslie

Emma and Noah finished 1st grade. We can't believe they are 2nd graders now! They both had a great year and

already miss their friends and teachers. Emma brought home a fish that she had been

raising in her class so Noah had to have one too. They are doing a great job of taking

care of them and keeping Mica, our cat, out of the aquariums. We

are staying busy this summer. We started it by swimming in a friend's pond. Emma and Noah loved catching the tiniest frogs we have ever seen, but Emma caught

more than she bargained for when what we thought was a slug on her finger turned out to be a leach. We joined a pool after that. We've kept ourselves busy swimming, visiting friends, going to the movies, going to the park and Natural Science Center. We are looking

forward to the week after the 4th

when mom's sisters and brother in law are coming for a visit. Emma and Noah are excited about practicing their German and learning some new words.

Lily has been having fun playing in her sand box, swimming and staying home with Daddy this summer.

Roger is feeling much better and we spend hours building the Great Wall of Pumpkin Center in our back yard this summer. Pictures to follow when we get it allplanted and grassed.
