Read MoreFun in the Sun, Concert in the Park
Today was the long-awaited Fun in the Sun event at Root! Brian was pretty excited about getting to go to school in his swimsuit, knowing there will be a lot of fun, messy, and wet activities today! We started out with some breakfast in the classroom, and Brandon got an early Father’s day gift from Brian. The kids did some morning activities while us parent volunteers got things set up outside the classroom. We set up a bunch of different stations, from sponge races, to water balloon...

That should help, right? 😉 Afterward, we went over to Laurel Hills and took a little nature walk by the pond and through the woods. Brian...

They also bought me a lovely lily plant. It looks like they had a great time building together! When they came home, I was presented with beautiful bouquet of flowers, a fancy coffee from Caribou, and a huge spread of Bruegger’s bagels and sandwiches! Wow, all this, and it’s not even mother’s...
