My Day-To-Day Photos

 It was Jared's last day of school today. He wrapped it up by writing finals in Physics and ELA. KK didn't get into the BFA program.  I'm disappointed.  But I have every confidence that she'll get in next year. She's working on a piece of art for me. It looks very promising. 

 We decided to go to the grad Sunday church service in Theodore.  The service itself was okay and could've done with less singing. There was a lunch afterwards , as well, and that did not go so smoothly.  Some hitchhiker came downstairs and was acting confrontational.  He really ruined what would have been a nice lunch. Especially,  after he came right up to us and accused us of not liking outsiders. He directed this comment at Jared. Carla Madesen intervened and calmed him with kindness and an offer of food. But, it was not at all nice having him there. We left before anyone else. The rest of the day was nice though. We took a few photos at the farm because Jared was wearing his suit again. We came and gave Todd a few gifts for Father's day - a Hawaiian style shirt, a movie, some snacks and a new  commander Magic deck, which we had a game of later. We also played Firefly again. And again, I was in the lead, but I couldn't catch a break from the dice, so Jared caught up and

 We pulled out this old goodi tonight. It has been a long time. I couldn't remember the order of things.  I was way ahead, but kept getting screwed over on the Misbehaving. Jared took it.

 After a downpour a couple of days ago, hundreds of earthworms surfaced. I saved quite a few, but today, there are a lot of dead nermals in the streets.  Otto the owl made an upclose appearance to Todd by perching on the tractor's exhaust.  He's been around the yard all spring. The rain did a number on our patio, so Todd had a job to do, and it looks perfect again.  Lily of the valley is a sweet little flower, but I don't like how they look growing in the mulch,  so I pulled them all out. Well, broke them off. They'll most likely be back next spring.  The ladyslippers are up and blooming beautifully.  I took 5 of them to Mom and Dad. I imagine them together,  remembering the good times of our childhood. We took a ride out to the farm, saw some of the crops and the beaver damage Todd has been fighting with. On the way back home,  we saw some goslings by J.C. Beach. It's been a few years since I've seen any.
