Richard's First Dance - Jan. 2011

Here's Richard ready to go to his first dance, which was the Winter Ball at Lewis Middle School. He let Camille give him tips on his hair and clothes, and went off to the dance with confidence. Later I went over to help chaperone the last half of the dance and he was having a great time, hanging out and dancing with different groups of kids. He later told me he had a following of 7th graders who wanted him to hang out and dance with them, as well as his friends from band.

Swimming Pool Sandwiches

Caitlyn and Madelyn had a great time swimming into the night after we arrived in Battle Ground, Washington on Monday night, June 27th. Near the end they decided to make themselves into sandwich filling for the pink floatie tubes.
