Zach and Clara went to the farm for the weekend, and Molly and I have been having a lovely weekend together. Yesterday afternoon we biked downtown and saw the new movie Inside Out and then went out for udon noodles. Here's Molly enjoying the soup.

Rain in June?
For the second time this month, I've woken up and said "Rain? In June?". Well, with the drought dragging on, we'll take what we can get. And, after this dry, dry winter, the kids were thrilled to be able to use their rain gear!

Superhero Day
Last week was Spirit Week at the kids' school, and Friday was Superhero Day. It was so much fun watching the girls develop the ideas they had for their costumes.
Clara chose "Gymnastics Fairy!", which bothered Molly to no end ("you're dressing as a fairy, not a superhero!"). After a bit of wavering, Clara stayed true to form and put together her costume. To demonstrate her powers, she ran around saying "You want to learn gymnastics? Great! I can teach you!".
Molly started out putting together a costume as Ms. Fouche (her teacher). In the process, though, she decided to be "Toolbox Woman!". (Toolbox is the social-emotional learning curriculum our school uses). She made a lanyard with Toolbox tools on it (like all the teachers have), a belt with her emblem, and to demonstrate her powers she would say: "Be calm! Everyone breathe! Be calm!".

Cache Creek
We spent our second Memorial Day weekend at the farm - it was hot, but not nearly as hot as last year. And there had been a recent release of water into the Cache Creek, so the kids enjoyed a good long swim with Mabel and Olive.
