Axle Rod Carlson- 9 week old German Boxer Puppy

AXLE ROD CARLSON

I knew how much work they are but had quickly forgotten. Still easier than a newborn baby;)

 The girls have been big helpers with feeding, letting out to potty and bathing.

 He loves getting under the rocks and bushes where its cool. Like puppys do, he naps a lot!

With First grade behind us what better way to celebrate than with a POOL PARTY.

The start of what we didnt realize would be a 2 week process to get clean....

 Uncovered, green and full of algea and leaves

 We swept, backwashed, chlorinated, salted, repeat, repeat, repeat for TWO WEEKS

(can you tell we are new pool owners?!)

BUT boy was it worth it. Pool was sparkling. Girls had a year end swim party. We had about 13 kids and 6 adults  They invited all the girls in their class, with the exception of one boy(Sadie insisted on Sammy) Cousins (who didnt make it) but had a good turn out otherwise. There were storms all around us but that didnt stop these kids. We swam and had snacks and drinks for all. They got to swim for about 2 hours before the rain came.

This is what being a kid is all about. They have swam everyday since they got out of school! Hours of entertainment.

Awards Day

 Mimi just happen to be visiting on Tristas award ceremony day. MOUSE AWARD and STEM AWARD

 AND Juju happen to be visiting on Sadies award ceremony day.

Worked out perfect. Galaileo Award- always doing her best and STEM Award

We are so proud of these two girls. 

All year they "clipped up" 

Both girls final report card were ALL A's. We are so proud!!

Their teacher would always say how helpful they were and what respectful girls they were. 

TRISTA LEE got the MOUSE (always doing her homework quietly) award  and Stem Award

SADIE got the Galileo Award- always doing her best job and the Artistic Award.
Both girls have lots of Carlson genes. Dad was so proud.
