Is it me or is the school year ending earlier and earlier every year? This year the girls got out in May and it doesn't even feel like summer yet. Sophia made it through her freshman year of High School and Mia is going to be a freshman next year. Hopefully Sophia is nicer to her little sister than I was to uncle Dan when he and I were in school together. Mia actually goes to a different school but might be going to Sophia's school for some extra curricular activities since her school doesn't offer them. They both struggled in some areas at times but worked hard and finished strong. I am so proud of both of them for working hard and being involved in activities. Sophie is in theater and JROTC and Mia is in the Ballet Folklorico club. Michelle lightened her load a bit by dropping some classes and is still working almost 30 hours a week so I'm working on teaching her to follow her dreams and not chase the $$$. I am proud of her being such a hard worker but I want her to be happy with what she does for a living and not concentrate on money. Other than school and work her favorite activity is spending time with her boyfriend....go figure. So get to work on your chores girls then get ready for our first summer adventure.
Sophia as Lady Beatrice in Arlington High School's performance of "Once upon a Mattress"
I wasn't sure what to think of the name at first but it was very cute and I am so proud of her for working so hard at rehearsal, JROTC practice and keeping up on her school work and chores.
Sophia's squad needs a little work on their timing but she was the best of the group and only cracked a smile when I whistled really loud
Since it is still spring after all, here are some pictures of our garden.
These are radishes, kale, squash and a bunch of other crap I won't eat
I was about to give up on this Navel Orange tree but he started showing signs of life so I'll give him a chance. Hang in there little guy!
Here is my corn field. GO HUSKERS!
The stalks have actually grown twice this size since this picture was taken.
