Chalk the Block

We heard about these amazing chalk drawings at the Riverwoods and decided to check it out. Sadly, it kept raining but while we were there it was dry for a few hours.

 Riverwoods has a really cool old fashioned toy store that the kids browsed in.

This year I had my 40th birthday! Jon was super thoughtful. He first put a video together of lots of friends giving me birthday wishes, some childhood which was fun, and showed it to me right when I woke up. He was actually staring at me, willing me to wake up in the morning because he was so excited to show me. Then he gave me a box of 40 presents! Mostly candy bars. It took a while to eat all that and I even shared with the whole family. Good thing!

In 5th grade, students go to Clearcreek which is a really fun camp up in the mountains. Sadly, Jon could not go with him because of work. He had a great time.

Max also went up to the mountains for a Scout Camp out. He looks forward to them.

For the Wolf Walk at Westfield they ran 2 miles. Seth is one of the shortest in his class but he makes up for it in heart. He ended up getting 3rd place in his grade. Go, Seth!!
