Summer Vacation

Summer vacation has officially started. We look forward to a fun, and busy summer filled with baseball, softball, cabin vacation, cookouts and enjoying the warm weather. After the very cold and snowy winter we are looking forward to enjoying some time outdoors. Now that the boys are getting older they seem to keep themselves more occupied. We’ll keep you posted on the events of our summer.

Over 1,000 minutes read!

In early May we set a reading goal for Levi for the entire month of May. In school he is supposed to read 15 minutes per day, which adds up to about 450 minutes by the end of the month. The last two months he had read about 650-700 minutes per month. Because of this we decided to set a goal of 1,000 minutes for the month of May. If he met the goal we would take the entire family to Dairy Queen.
After a lot of reading, Levi surpassed his goal. By the end of the month he had read 1,043 minutes. That is a combination of independent reading and us reading to him. For the month of June his goal is 1,250 minutes. Does anyone have thoughts on his reward if he meets his new goal?
Way to go Levi! We are very proud of you.
