5th grade D.A.R.E. graduation.  

Jacob played his clarinet on the drive to school this morning.  He played star wars, batman and some jazz.  I had less than an hour at home after work before heading back to school for Adam's D.A.R.E. graduation.  Jared met me at the school.  Eli was on recess so we got to say hi to him before heading in.  After the graduation we got to take Adam home with us.  He went home with Daddy and I stayed to pick up Eli.  He and I went to McDonalds while we waited for Jacob to get done with Jazz band.  We went back to McDonalds to get Jacob a shake before heading home. At home Adam drew plans for the house he wants to build when he's older.  He plans on buying Gene's property next to ours.   Nik came over and the boys played in the sand.  Eli and Daddy headed to soccer practice.  Adam and I kicked the soccer ball around.  Adam decided to go for a swim in the pond.  Soon Nik and Jacob joined him in the water.  Eli also joined them when he got home from practice.  I relaxed on the swing and took a walk in the woods. Our bloodroot is blooming and the Solomon's seal is coming up.  The boys were ready for a warm shower and hot chocolate when they came in.
