Lennon turned 15 today!
Sometimes it feels like he should be turning 25 or something, but we don't want to get there too fast.
The end of the school year lies a few days/ weeks back by now. Lennon "graduated" from the Walpole Elementary School (the local middle school) on June 17th with a big old ceremony.
Keira and Kassidy went to horse camp this week. It was filled with lots of chores, splashing in the creek, crafts and of course, riding.
On Wednesdays, Keira still ahs her regular lesson. She jumped for the first time and loved it!
Keira had her first riding competition today, and won a 1st place ribbon, two 2nd place ribbons, and a 3rd place ribbon.
She was also also awarded the champion ribbon for best overall in her riding events.
She also had fun :)
Here are some pics of her, Gemini (her horse), and Claire (her friend).
Etta and Miles came over to hang out and bop Lukas and Lennon on the head with pool noodles.
They move away in two weeks- we will miss them all!
Our fun and quirky daughter turned 12 today.
I can't imagine what her teen years are going to be like, so we will all slow down and enjoy 12 as much as we can :)
