After a relaxing day, we spent the evening at the City of Columbia Fireworks display with Ari’s family.
We also were in a great location to watch Columbia’s fireworks display.
It was a great evening with friends and family!
Jim’s Nighttime Thing
Every night, Jim comes up to join me right after I get in bed. It is his nighttime “thing.”
Senior Photo Session
And, here we are… John had has Senior photo session with Tamara Dee Photography today.
He just wanted to get it over with, so we did it early. He sure took some amazing photos.
These are just the behind-the-scenes photos, and Ari even joined for a few.
While Tamara was snapping photos, it occurred to me that she has been taking pictures of our family since John was two years old. How is that possible? Wasn’t that just yesterday?
I cannot wait to see the final product in a few weeks, but I am also sad. My baby is a Senior.
Addyson is Here!
Our niece, Addyson, is here to visit for the next three weeks. It is so fun listening to all the laughter from this great group of kids.
The Village
While 3/4 of the Kassels were vacation vibing in Aurora, CO, I am super thankful for the two families who made sure that John got to Nashville, got to his baseball games, and even agreed to house him.
It takes a village, People, and it is friends like them that make it all worth doing.
Last Day
Laura and I took advantage of the resort on our last day while Andy was at the Grand Chapter sessions. We ate a great lunch at one of the restaurants called Garden & Grain. We split an appetizer and a pizza.
We made sure to get Laura some ice cream from the marketplace and get a picture of her with the bear statue.
We wrapped up the evening with Andy at the closing banquet.
It has been a great trip, but I miss John. We leave for home first thing in the morning.
