Familiar faces in a photo at the library.

Another library visit! I noticed the library is showcasing this photo of our very own R and S. R won the prize drawing for the adult participants in the library’s summer reading program. Being the wonderful husband that he is, he gave the prize (the water bottle) to me.

Back to school photo!

S started pre-school today. His preschool is a small mom-led preschool co-op. I teach on Tuesdays and Thursdays and another mom takes Mondays and Wednesdays. There are 3 boys in the group, plus some younger siblings.

H during a Sunday stroll through campus.

We took a Sunday walk to R’s office and took some pictures along the way.

S at the Bishop Museum

We took the boys to the Bishop Museum again. We enjoyed the Planetarium show and tried to take the boys to the melting lava rock demonstration, but both boys found it to scary. H used his developing language skills to say “I want go out”. Fortunately, the boys found other things they could appreciate in the science building including this larger than life snail model. It reminds me of the racing snails in the “Neverending Story”.

I thought I might try using the inspiration list from Capture Your 365 again; maybe I’ll take fewer desperation shots. Anyway, I was out in the garden, trying to take a picture of my watering can, since that is a new every day chore when I noticed this truck out of place in the front yard. H plays with this truck almost every day and its looking a little worse for wear, but I thought it was a pretty good representation of our every day around here.

S practicing at swim lessons, assisted by his teacher.

S using the Olaf hooded towel I made for him, adapted from this tutorial.

A close up of a pair of S’s swim trunks that were left on the bathroom sink; I took this picture just before bed.

Just some toys on the floor, a common sight in our home.

I got a new calling as the first counselor in our ward’s Primary Presidency. Earlier this month, I was elected President of the local affiliate of Friends of the Library. I start teaching Preschool again on Monday. In recognition of all of the things that will be keeping me busy, I got a new planner.
