Some Summertime activities we've enjoyed:
Cat therapy
Yes, indeed! We are now taller than [some rare] cars!
The kids are getting tennis lessons from Marc (and basketball!)
And now, pictures of our "landscaping" BEFORE:

This is what we did on Thursday morning this week: We went to our neighbor's house and played our keyboard for them. It's a large house whose lower level is a very nice assisted living facility. These ladies were so welcoming and appreciative of our playing for them: we are looking forward to going back there soon. We played plenty of Classics: Chopin, Grieg, Granados, and a few modern pieces too, but I also played a hymn, and Marcella (between Amber and Luke) began to sing when I played "Blessed Assurance, Jesus is Mine." I accidentally cut off Mrs. Jones in the picture. The kids felt very comfortable playing there! The caretakers and the facility owner and her little children also listened. We will come back soon with some of my students as well.
Friday was Knitting Lessons with Aunt Ginger! Amber has been begging for knitting lessons, and when she got started Luke thought he'd better try too. I'd told him that knitting was OK for guys too, since Mr. McConnaughey the truck driver does it, and also lots of men in Scotland knit.
Aunt Ginger's patience was outstanding. She can undo many confusing problems! The kids had a great time.
