16 years.

My favorite time of year has come again.

The school board convention. 

I love it and I am going to be sad when either; we move or my dad retires. 

My dad received his 16 year plaque on Friday night. 

Crazy that's only one year younger than Sage.

That is a looong time to be volunteering for the school board. 

I'm glad he does it. 

He has made a lot of GOOD changes to Kane County Schools as well as, the 1A and 2A regions as a whole.

Way to go dad!

We love spending the weekend at the pool.

This was Siri's first time in the pool.

She loved it... as long as grandma was there. 

She wouldn't even sit up in the floaty. She just laid back, kicked her feet and talked and talked to Grandma. 

This guy thinks he can swim without his life jacket. 

He is almost there. 

Maybe I should enroll him in swim lessons, I'll put that on my to-do list...

This is not posed. 

I promise.

I was taking so many pictures of Siri and he wanted some as well.

I said; "flash me a smile."

This is what I got.

He's got so much character.
