Well, we survived another week without Scott. It actually went quite quickly because we are so busy. I continue to teach third grade and the kids are busy with school, soccer practice, graduation dinners at church, playing at Grandma's house, homework, etc. Here are some highlights of the week.
Kam and Troy enjoying afterschool popscicles on the deck.
Go, Go Speed Racer! Troy received a special birthday gift from the Denver cousins. (Aunt Sarah always gives the best gifts!!) This is right up Troy's alley and he is loving watching these cars shoot around the track. (Kamryn patiently read all of the instructions and pieced it all together for him. I was thankful I didn't have to do it!)
Kamryn's class spent Friday morning at a one room school house in the country by us. They had class there and a picnic lunch. Everyone dressed in "pioneer" clothing for the occasion. Thankfully the teachers had a donated supply of dresses to borrow. Here's Kam in the one she chose to wear. She actually enjoyed wearing it!
Her basket lunch completes the look.
Kamryn with her covered wagon project.

On Friday night we all went to see the movie, "Speed Racer." We ended up looking at the wrong time, so we had to go to the Imax version where the screen is 3 stories high! It was pretty cool.
Scott update: Scott continues to enjoy ministry in the Chicago area. He has been invited to dinner at church people's homes every night this week! His first sermon went well last week and he is all set for two more tomorrow. We are thankful things are going well, but are anxious to be all together as a family again!..One more week!!
