Brock School Pics

By -
The last few months have been just swell for Brock at school. Here is a long picture filled post to see him in action.


 















 This is Brock's favorite game that he plays outside, "bad guy ship". He and his pals are bad guys and shoot gum and ice cream out of their fingers. Doesn't sound that "bad" to me.










 This is hunky Mr. Shaun. He has been filling in for Jambo for March. Brock really likes him and sounded a little disappointed that this was his last week with him.




 Matt and I were able to come on visitors day, (not a regular occurrence). It was awesome, but Brock was really sad when our time was up. He has been waiting for the day that he could show us his works for a long time. We got to see a lot, and it was great to have him introduce to the other kids as well.

Kindergarten graduation!

The event began with the graduates singing a song to their teacher: And then the main event! Then we adjourned to the playground for cake and popsicles.  Alice with one of her closer friend, Chloe. And her AMAZING teacher who we will miss so much, Ms. Heintzelman! It has been a really good year! Alice has bloomed in reading and math and particularly in her interest and understanding of sociology and science. She even made a few friends! I can say I learned more from than even Brock's first year of public school. I began volunteering on Friday mornings in December after her school received 100 new refugee students from Venezuela (her school went from 200 to 300 in a day!). I did not want to volunteer in the classroom, but instead wanted to help out with admin, but that was not where humans were needed, so I ended up in the neighborhood third grade class. This was way outside

Camping Disc Golf 2017

Uh. When the going gets rough, the rough roughs it! And off we head to Michigan for our annual camping and disc golfing extravaganza. We are last minute campers and it worked to our advantage this year. As everything else was booked, we ended up at a little "secret" campsite we know of in western MI called Timberview. The nice old man that runs it got sick of loud campers, so he pulled all listings off of the internet. It's not on google maps. We were lucky enough to drive by one year and just stop in. And now that we have a kid, he set us up in the nicest secluded campsite, of which we took two pictures (we're bad at this sometimes.) There was wonderful hiking, an assortment of mushrooms to discover, and a giant hill of majestic old-growth pines that Brock aptly named "pine tree heaven." It's also quite refreshing to be in a site where you are actually allowed to gather your own firewood, and it's low-traffic enough that there is plenty.
