End of Sixth Grade and New Pool

 The girls are officially done with sixth grade... congratulations!




Emily bought a new pair of sunglasses. 


A pretty rainbow seen from our back deck. 


The girls treat us to the best breakfasts! This one included banana muffins made from scratch and a red bell pepper and cheese omelette. 


It was really hot for a few days, so Justin set up an inflatable pool for the girls.


We recreated a childhood photo...


The original photo was from June 2011... so cute!


The girls are getting taller... almost the same height as me!

Cinnamon Rolls and Strawberries

The girls made cinnamon rolls from scratch! 


They used dried currants instead of raisins. 


The cinnamon rolls were delicious!


Our favorite Hood strawberries are in season.

The girls attend all of their taekwondo classes virtually using the Zoom app. This week they had a pre-test to help prepare for their second degree black belt testing in August. 


The girls decided to make the cinnamon rolls again, this time using bread flour instead of white flour. 


The finished product was delicious and subtly more chewy because of the bread flour. It was such a treat to wake up to these on sunday morning!
