Retirement Party

What a great feeling to actually get to retire someday.   At this point, with about 35 years remaining to this day, I can only envy my father-in-law.  He got to retire on May 20th, after 70 years, probably working 55 of them, he really deserves it.  So my mother-in-law planned an amazing party for him that I got to be part of.  There were about 50 people that got to help celebrate with him.  We had an amazing dinner, wine, roast and toast, and some late night dancing. 

We got a great picture with the man of the night! 

Congratulations Art, you are a wonderful man, father, husband, and friend. 

Preschool Program

Zackary finished up preschool last Thursday. He was in the last session for this school year of Apples to Zebras with the City of Chandler. He loved going, I was a bit hesitant to sign him up but what a great experience he had. I think we will be continuing next year as long as he still enjoys going. We still have 2 more years before school, I'm in no hurry to send him off to school but a couple hours of preschool a week seems to be a good fit for him to get out and learn some fun stuff and do great art projects.

The kids put on a little program for the parents on the last day. They did the Pledge of Allegiance, sang all the songs they learned, and we had snacks and drinks. It was so cute to see him with friends and teachers, interacting and singing along.

These are the wonderful teachers Ms. Lizzy and Ms. Dori.

He loved to tell them stories about airplanes and Papa.
