Summer Wrap-Up

Since summer activities are winding down 
with the opening of school books, 
here's some of what Maddie did during the summer.

She completed all of her senior service hours!
Pius X (Maddie's school) requires seniors to perform 36 hours of
volunteer service work at school and/or in the community.
While 36 hours may not sound like a lot, when you're 
only getting a couple hours here and there, it takes a while to get to 36!
Maddie did all of her hours working in the Pius uniform shop!
It takes a lot of unpacking and organization to sort and have polos, shorts,
shirts, pants and sweatshirts ready to sell and package up for over 1,200 students!


After working mornings Mondays through Thursdays at the
uniform store, she spent Friday mornings playing and reading
with the Littles!  They had so much fun together and
it was great for her to spend time with them
and to give Philip and Catherine an extra pair 
of hands!
She also got some fabulous photos of the kids!
They are growing up fast!


Jane - 9 years old (4th grade)


Walt - 8 years old (3rd grade)


Harry - 6 years old (kindergarten)


Dorothy - 3 years old (preschool)

and


Gloria - 5 months old 


Aren't they just adorable! 
 Maddie had so 
much fun with them during the summer!

Quick Update

Greetings all!
How in the world did it already get to be the middle of June???
I want the summer to slow down already and
let me get some blog posts done!
Yes, I am always behind lately  :)


So, when I last left you . . . Maddie had just
finished school for the summer!
Since the upcoming seniors have to complete
36 hours of volunteer/senior hours  - she's been
focused on getting those completed during the summer!
Yay Maddie!

She's working at the uniform shop at school!
Oh my word, it's a huge undertaking and I have
no idea how the woman doing it gets it done
every year!
Try folding and fitting 5,000 polo shirts in a very small space!!
That doesn't even include the sweatshirts, shorts, pants or skirts.

In other news, we took a quick trip to our favorite place . . .
the happiest place on earth!
We were greeted there with 98 degree temps
and the heat index of 106 nearly every day!
Oh my Lord - that is hot!
BUT . . . it didn't stop us from
getting to the parks, going on rides,
meeting characters and even some swim time.
It was fabulous. 
I will try to update with some photos!


So, that's my short update.
What's happening with you?
