Fathers Day

Campers be camping.

The first two weeks of summer around here mean camps. Girls' Camp, Scout Camp and Cub Scout Camp! All so fun and everyone returned in one piece. Hooray!

All clean on the day the Deacons left for Scout Camp! Neal is the Scoutmaster so he got to go, too.

At dinner one night!

Accumulating dirt.

Parker got to help with a flag retirement ceremony one evening.

Madie, Julia and Audrey heading off to ward girls' camp!

As one of the "experienced" riders, Audrey got to ride one of the more difficult horses.

With her best buds: Madie, Nikel and Julia. I love these girls!

Miles had a fun week at Cub Scout Day Camp with his buddies. Here he is with Matthew and Connor.

BB guns every day!

The Slip 'n Slide was a must. So hot!

Miles will be an 11-year-old scout next summer, so no more Cub Scout Day Camp for us! Alas.

Baseball rules.

There was a week that Miles and I had a lot of time to ourselves. Audrey was at Girls' Camp and Neal and Parker were at Scout Camp, so we went out to the Frisco Rough Riders' game! They are a minor league team that plays nearby. We sat right behind home plate next to a bunch of MLB scouts. It was pretty cool!

Miles with his Rangers team. They had an incredible season!

Miles and Parker both played on their league All-Star teams and they did awesome! Miles' team won the tournament! Here he is with some of his fellow Rangers: Britten, Jack and Maddox.

End of School!

There are always lots of things going on at the end of the school year. We like to be sure to get pics to commemorate them!

Miles' Kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Wimberley, will be moving to another school next year. We got her original class together for a picture. Next year, they will be fourth graders!

Miles for Treasurer! FES StuCo 2016 from lesliehorn on Vimeo.

Miles won the Student Council election and will be the Treasurer for the school next year! I was so proud of him. Here is his little speech.

Here is Parker with Mr. Fuchs, who has been such a big part of his life for two years now!

Audrey won the K Award for German I Pre-AP, which means she had the highest grade in the class across all sections! She loves her German class! Here she is with one of our other Young Women, Autumn.

Audrey also was awarded a Green Cord recognition for completing 100 hours of community service during the school year. Yay, Audrey! This is her after the ceremony, in her poop emoji dress that we love so much.

Miles and Audrey both had their artwork featured at City Hall this year. Here is Miles with his self portrait.

Audrey's dear friend, Annika, graduated! She is fabulous and headed off to college this fall!

She was my student, too, so I hopped in the pic!

Miles and his buddies. Up top is Michael and below are Harrison and Benjamin. It's so fun to see these kids grow up together year after year.

Having fun with buddies at the end-of-year party at the Keller Pointe.

Audrey's seminary teachers (three of them!) are all dear family friends. She was so blessed to learn from them every morning this year!
