First Grade & Summer Giggles

Django was excited to get back to school.  He's in first grade and likes his teacher very much.  He and his class are learning about the desert, doing journal writing & math "story problems," and as always, his favorites are the special classes like Art, Music, Dance, Computers and Science.  Meanwhile, Alistair was thrilled to attend a 1-year-old's birthday party, where there was an inflatable pool filled with colored balls.  I could have left him there all day.  

Road Trip! August 2015

We had a great time on the Team Lohmann Family Road Trip of August 2015!  First stop was with Lin and Malcolm in gorgeous Sausalito.  We would have taken more photos there, but we were too busy taking beautiful neighborhood walks, baking muffins, eating scrumptious meals, and introducing a very patient Roy the Cat to Alistair (pulling whiskers is fun!)  Then on to Grass Valley and Uncle Dave's place, where we visited with Dave, Steve & Isabelle, Django learned to steer a tractor, everybody loved swimming, enjoyed even more delicious meals (including Django's first time with chopsticks!) and, in general, chilled out.  On the drive home to L.A., Alistair got his first tooth - an eventful (and howling) end to our trip!
