Back to June.  I’m determined that I will catch up soon.  I have a work day coming up and there may be several days of photo dumps but by the end of the year this blog will be caught up.  I hope.

Our summer programs at our local library are wonderful.  The kids always enjoy trying to hit their goals as quickly as possible.  They can usually do it pretty fast too.  The library staff always works hard to bring in great local talent to encourage the kids to read.  This year was no exception.

Right after Y got home, we attended a summer music program from Dan the Mountain Man.  He told vivid stories.

And sang several fun silly songs.  Then he had the kids create their own jug band.  My kids all volunteered and some got to participate.

Since Zoe was the tallest kid there, she got “volunteered” to play the jug bass.

This is what Y thought of the all children jug band.  Yeah, it was pretty noisy.Ceili Rain didn’t get to participate in the jug band but she did get to help with the finale.
