Congrats Mrs. B

This past weekend we celebrated the retirement of Tim's mom from over 29 years of teaching. The entire family - including the parents of all us in-laws - had a wonderful dinner in a victorian home turned restaurant in Goshen.

The whole group watching a special video of Barb and her teaching years.

Tim and his parents along with me and mine outside the restaurant.

The Bontrager girls surrounding Mom Bontrager. Congratulations Barb!

Learning Something New

Hhhmmm.... I might have just found a new hobby. Last night, our church held a "mugged" flower design class. I love to decorate and do graphic design for a living, so thought - why not? And for the fact that it was advertised as a "Patriotic" arrangment - you knew I'd be there.

So here she is. I'm sure not technically "right", but so much fun & lots of great tips! (who knew you could take not-so-good smelling flowers and put them in water with fabric softner to make them less noticable? Good stuff :)

Boys Will Be Boys...

It was the last game of the last season of flag football that Tim was EVER going to play...

... and he tears his calf muscle.

So for the next 6-8 weeks... no sand volleyball, no softball, no running, no summer fun for Timmy.
