We are very proud of our two older grandchildren. Savannah made the Honor Roll and was promoted to sixth grade, and Ian, who made all A's this past year, was promoted to third grade. We haven't seen this yet, but apparently Savannah has become quite good at double-dutch rope jumping. If you don't know what this is, click here. Ian is probably looking forward to the Fall football season and practicing every day to get ready. They are both very active.

In the meantime, their Dad obtained the material for a clubhouse in the backyard. It is made from recycled supplies, and the kids helped him build and paint it. We're sure they'll share their clubhouse with their many friends and their dogs Cosmo and Wanda. Wanda joined the kids for the picture below.
