Last week didn’t get documented well with pictures. There were a lot of fun and good things that happened that don’t have photo evidence of them happening.Here are some of them.

Lilly graduated on June 2. I made all the kids come. Glen was there on double duty as dad and assistant principal. Grandma and Grandpa Richins and Grandma Egbert came.
