Nine.Four Years

 9.4 Years

• End of school year is here. It has been such a good year. To celebrate, you hosted a summer party. All the girls brought swimsuits to go swimming a play water balloon volleyball. We put together craft bags that you then all had to do a challenge with. The challenge was a tree house. We ended with fun food and a dance party. Whitney busted out her twerking moves. It was a blast.
• We went on our first of many family adventures. We got to go rafting down the Deschutes River for two nights. It was really great. There were several class III rapids and Dad manned the raft perfectly. You love the big ones. I had each of you girls bring things to keep you entertained while we were camping. I was thinking a book and maybe a sketch pad. Well, you brought the most random things, but boy were they fun for you girls. You brought paint pens so one day, you all painted rocks and left them on the beach for others to find. We listened to Glitch while on the river and ended the trip with hamburgers and milkshakes.
• Eddison is a boy that has been in your class the last two years. We ran into at the park the other day. You were excited because he wanted to take you to the movies (he had earned movie tickets for reading). I said if his mom texts me then you could go. Well, his mom text me that night. You were so fun to watch. You wanted to wear a dress, but also the new running shoes that you got. You were very specific on how you wanted your hair done. It was so cute seeing you get excited for "your date". This is the same boy that you went to the park at night for, so I am glad it worked out this time.
• Lilly Springer is in your primary class this year and you two asked your teachers if you could teach the lesson for Sunday. So Lilly came over and you both played the lesson together. It turned out so fun. You had an activity and snacks.
