First day of Kindergarten (sniffle).

Maxwell's a big boy now! It's his first day of kindergarten. And it was rough on the parents.

Pool time!

We spent a lot of time at the Bexley pool this year. Including 4 days/week for 6 weeks of morning lessons. A LOT. Luckily it was a scorching summer, so it was a really great year for it. Here's Maxwell and his second cousin Katarina enjoying it.

Cousins playin'!

Luke came by for some pool time and play time on a scorching July day.

July 4th Parade, Bexley.

Living on Roosevelt, the annual parade goes right past our house.

Tennis prodigy?

We started Maxwell over in New Albany with some tennis lessons. He seemed to have a good time, but complained it was "too hot." Kind of a lot.

So maybe not.

Spring Soccer!

Maxwell played on his first team this Spring, the Golden Galaxy of the Bexley Rec league. He spent more time on the ground than on his feet, but they all started getting the idea.
