BUSTED

Our computer has decided it no longer wants to turn on. Yippee!! So now I need to have it fixed or get a new one. Not that I'm attached.....I just don't want to spend the money.


It seems like everything is breaking lately. Friday evening we had a big storm and we lost our patio table. It flipped over in the wind and the glass top shattered all over the deck and into the flower garden. Later that night is when we discovered that the computer wouldn't turn on. Storm related? Don't know.....monitor still works and everything else plugged into the power strip is still operational.


So...In less then a week we are going on vacation and I will not be able to post ....I think it's a good time to take a blogging break......I hope that my three or four loyal readers will still be here when i rejoin the blogging community! AND when I return from Colorado I'm hoping that I'll have a computer at home that is in good working order!

EDIT:
chuck just sent me this photo from his phone....

this how chuck ended up spending father's day. they had a daddy, daughter round of golf at a local nine hole course. this course has a very short three hole course on the grounds. just perfect for the attention span of a certain six year old that i know.
~
price is also right.... $3 for adults and only $1 for kids for as many times around the course as they care to play.
the quad city air show was this weekend. as they played golf they got to view some of the show. here are the navy blue angels putting on there show.

the recital was a huge success! i cried i was so proud! she preformed with no hesitation and smiled for the crowd the entire time!
~
here are just a few pictures from last night. we couldn't take flash photograghy so all the pictures were from home and outstide the school.
~
aubrey has been invited to join "broadway kids". a class that meets for a half hour longer and does two preformancies at recital. she has said that she wants to take that class. we can begin that this next week or wait till school starts. haven't decided yet when we start for sure.
~
tomorrow starts summer school. we wanted to have her in some type of activity this summer and this will be perfect since i work during the day. she is really looking forward to going and i believe there are about seven or eight field trips planned so far.

LAST DAY OF KINDERGARTEN !!

the traditional picture the morning of the last day.

i gave my camera to elvira to snap some pictures of aubrey and lili on the last day at school. here are aubrey's friends from left to right: lili, olivia, aubrey, kylie and christian.

waiting to go inside.

after school, elvira took the kids to mc donalds for food and play. here is aubrey with icecream on her nose!

after i picked aubrey up from elvira's it was time from the recital rehersal. this is one of the only pictures that turned out well enough to share. she is the third one from the left. tonight is the real deal and if rehersal is any indication then we will do just fine tonight. she said she couldn't see us and we were right in front of her. she tends not to dance when i am watching.
~
so, wish us luck tonight! and lets hope it goes as well as the rehersal did!
