We stayed at a water park lodge in Wausau the weekend before Institute and stayed with friends in Menomonie after Institute.  I neglected to take pictures, but I think Dan has some on his phone. 

Here's our annual park shot.  I'm happy to report that Sarah has crossed over to the other side.  She kept asking when we were taking the picture and seemed concerned that we wouldn't get to it.  We were a bit surprised as it has not been her favorite activity for the last couple of years.  Of course, now Hannah is the one who would prefer we skip it.  Ahhhhh..... the joys of having children two years apart.

Sarah had a wonderful A Class.  We had quite a week with Veracini's Gigue as it was the polished piece for all three students!

Joannah came one evening and brought her darling Ellie along for the fun.

Joanna always brings them a book for the drive home.  Dan and I owe Ellie a library!  Sarah couldn't wait to dive into Sherlock Holmes.

We had a recital at a park with a student of mine who moved away a couple of years ago.

as we spent some time north of there the previous weekend. Maybe we'll meet one day. We're typically in your area sometime in late July or early August.
