Stuart giving Nathan one more piece of advice before he gets on the bus.





























12 buses lines up and they pulled out all at once.





We went to the Three Rivers Art Festival. This art is up through Oct.











Dancing waters. If the weather was warmer, it would be filled with kids.











Lucinda Williams sang at the concert. The crowd was the dregs of the city. We were sitting in back of six smokers. People are not supposed to smoke in the audience area. Such heavy people. Then there are all the tattoos. Some are pretty art work but why do they want them? And the piercing. In cold weather all that is covered up.





For dinner on Father's Day, Jack and I bought four whole lobsters and had a feast. The tail meat was tough but I enjoyed it. Then we went to the movies and saw IDA. Good movie and sad.
Mollie started J and R day camp.






Look at those long legs. What did she grow them? Her Keen sandals are with sparkles.





Mollie and her good friend Abigail wearing twin bathing suits.





Jim and Sadie

Grandkids

Jack and I filled with joy at all the kids activities and achievements.
Sadie was in the play Aladdin and she was wonderful. She was the youngest in the cast of third through sixth graders. Totally at ease. This will be one of many plays, I am sure.



























































Maya was in a choir concert. She is in seventh grade. The theme was the British Invasion of music from the 1960. Unfortunately the teacher that. played a guitar thought it was all about him. He overpowered the choir. At the end of the performance, he took a bow and forgot about the choir in back of him. Maya said she did not like the teacher and is not taking choir again. There was an accident with the trains. Causing delays with all the passengers heading home. Many dads or working parents on the trains did not make the performance including Dad Dave.























We went to watch her play water polo. There are three girls on the team. The boys are mostly high school. This day she was the only girl at practice. She is in the white cap.























Holden was in the All City fifth grade band concert. There were about 80 kids and they sounded quite good.











Holden plays the clarinet and you can not see him on the stage.











Eve took Adley to visit Sally and Cliff . They are making cookies.












Eve and Suzie Siber Woods at the fifth anniversary of her parents. She has been friends with Suzie since they went to overnight camp at Camp Harlem at age nine. Suzie now lives in England so they have most of the visits on FaceTime.











Saying good bye to Adley











Adley was a fairy at school and it tired her out.











Holden bought a special baseball bat. He was so excited that he slept with it.











The team came in second .











Mollie graduated from kindergarten. It was a big affair. She was wearing a sparkle dress and looked so pretty.


















Getting her diploma.




































We bought a new red lea her sofa. Gave the old one to friends of the cleaning women. They were thrilled.
