We had planned to go on a picnic to the new Dog Park and then play miniature golf at Cosmic golf but it was a bit rainy so we shelved the picnic and then found out that Cosmic golf was closed because of a fire a couple of months ago. So, we headed to the mall and went to the new Build-A-Bear Workshop that opened this week and played glow golf.

We had a red, white, and blue grilled dinner on the patio (red meat – steak tenderlon – filled with blue cheese, and grilled white corn on the cob). Also had made star shaped red, white and blue ice cubes so had those with lemon-lime soda.

We then watched the Disney classic Johnny Tremain on DVD before putting the kids to bed (amid the noise of neighborhood fireworks – they miraculously fell asleep quickly despite the noise).

 

June 20th, Noah’s last day of kindergarten, turned out to be a very busy day for our family. Noah’s kindergarten ended up having a graduation ceremony that morning to transition them into first grade and Kaara’s dance class had a recital that evening. (Mom had to drive over to Beaverton for a training class in the afternoon too.)

This was Noah’s last Council of Achievement at Grace for Royal Rangers. He earned all of the main badges for the year as well as several other activity badges. He also earned enough points to receive the Ranger of the Year Medal. The two other boys in his patrol also received the medal. The commander had the boys’ dads present their awards to them.

Kaara’s preschool held its annual Spring Program. Her class, the Caring Cows, sang Ol’ Miss Kelly Had a Farm.
