Morning Walk

Living in Playa Vista affords us beautiful walking paths and pristine landscapes.  We had a nice morning walk as a family.  I wish we would do this more often.  When will take our next family walk???

Summer days

Summer days are the best, wouldn't you say???

All Stars

Micah had an awesome season with his team and was selected to be on the All Star team again!  He had a good time with his friends on the All Star team.  Will he want to continue to play baseball next season???

Walt Disney Concert Hall

Nothing says beautiful acoustical music like the Walt Disney Concert Hall.  We had the opportunity to hear young musicians play in the hall and we had amazing (free) seats!  My hope is that these cultural experiences the boys receive will inspire them to create beauty in the world.  After hearing the music, I wonder if they will they want to learn a new instrument???

Art

After 20 years (yes, we met in 1999), we still like going to art museums and hanging out with one another.  It's always lovely being around Jawsh and an immersive art installation from Yayoi Kusama.  How many more art galleries will we visit in the next 20 years???

Culmination Party

Today was Micah's last hooray with some of his 5th grade friends from elementary school. They had fun watching a movie in the private screening room and playing games afterwards.  Being part of a magnet school means that the kids separate into various middle school programs.  Micah is bummed that he is no longer with his close friend, M, who is attending a different school.  What new friends will Micah make in middle school???

Micah's Culmination

My baby is no longer a baby.  I guess this has been a true statement for some time but now that he has culminated from elementary school and he is heading off to middle school, I really feel this.  Micah had such a wonderful, nurturing, and fun experience in elementary school and I feel incredibly blessed that I was able to be there to witness a lot of it.  I am so proud of the person he is and the person he is becoming.  How will Micah transition into middle school???
