Fathering sure has changed since the times of matching madras shorts at the Greenlake Wading Pool but Don continues to be the supporting arms that are always there for Quinn and our family.

Quinn and his closest friends have all been vaccinated. It’s nice not to mask. This is how they like to hang out.

Things are getting back to normal. Maskless class inside on this 100 degree hot day.

This was so welcoming during the heatwave.

Quinn wanted to see who was faster. Quinn won.

Mae enjoyed the afternoon with us.

Drying off in the sun. Best buddies.

An epic 7th grade school year is in the books. Quinn was 100% virtual with 2 classes per day from 9 am – 11:30 am. I don’t know how they covered a years worth of curriculum but they made the most of it.

And Quinn had a great academic year with mostly A’s and a couple of B’s. And that’s with 3 honors classes: english, social studies, and math. Next year he will add honors science to his schedule.

Here’s what the first day of school looked like. We got Quinn a ChromeBook that he used for school only and that worked out really well.

Did I ever post this picture of him learning virtually?

Last day of PE doing push ups. He was so D.O.N.E.

Obligatory last day of school pics. Jumping for joy.

His luscious glory, as Don likes to call his hair.

Class of 2026! Um, it almost fits him in the 7th grade. Should be interesting in the 12th grade.

Just a reminder of years past.

The kid doesn’t really ask for much but we usually get him something at the end of the school year. This year we got him a Gamer’s Laptop. He was so surprised and happy and his gaming friends were so excited for him.

And that’s a wrap on the 7th Grade!
