first rites of summer

well folks, we made it.

the last two weeks of school were busy busy: alice in wonderland celebration, spelling bee, talent show, astronomy field trip, finishing, cleaning.  oh how I love those kids.  we went up for a quick stint at the cabin, which was wonderful as usual.

school was officially out on June third, and boy, does it feel great.  I spent all morning gardening yesterday,  and all afternoon cleaning my house.  samuel is a champ and did all of the things I don't like to do like mop and trim the rosebush and scrub the toilet.  tonight we made hamburgers and corn on the cob, and went for a walk before it got too dark.  summertime is here!  (and it feels especially worthwhile when you've got tomatoes, peppers and geraniums planted, a clean and peaceful house, and great things on the calendar).

happy june.
