It’s been a month? Jeez, for what is supposed to be a weekly posting I sure have been lax.
Having a new baby is no excuse…
Let’s get to it.
There was another dance competition this summer. This was across Lake Washington in Bellevue and would be Dela’s first feis (pronounced “fesh”) outside of the one her schools hosts every year.
And she did great, coming home with a trophy and a fist full of medals.
A couple of days after that Dela danced with her school in the annual neighborhood parade. I couldn’t get any decent pictures of her in action but did get the kids as they sat watching the rest of the parade. Left to right is Xavier, Dela, August and Ciaran then some other people I do not know.
This would be followed by resident camps for Ciaran and August.
Since I came back in the middle of August’s camp I was able to take three of the kids to a Mariners game.
Ciaran and Xavier had fun playing around before the game started.
I came across a dancing walrus in the ballpark as well.
Another obligatory baby shot.
Dela turned 11. Instead of cake she wanted pie. Just something different.
It was a pretty low key affair, which was nice.
Yesterday Kindergarten students were allowed to bring in their school supplies and check out the classroom ahead of the first day of school. Here is Xavier taking his stuff in, bringing along Ciaran for moral support – Ciaran had the same kindergarten teacher that Xavier has been assigned.
The first day of school is just days away. More pictures are coming.
