Finally some softball!

The Diamonds got to scrimmage finally. So far their tournaments have been cancelled due to COVID so we found a local team to play us. 

Love seeing them play again!

Marcus had a double header on Father’s Day. He arrived early to warm up. 

Nice job!

BFFs

After promotion the girls went to Lexie’s to hang out.  These are the shirts they got at their promotion.  All the names of the kids in their class are written on the numbers and letters...so cool!  

They have missed each other so much...it was so nice to get them back together again. 

8th Grade Promotion

The girls got to do an 8th grade promotion even though COVID is still around. 

Olivia looked so grown up.  

Emma is growing up fast too. 

Olivia adores Archie. 

My beautiful twins. 

We took a few photos at home. 

So pretty. 

Congratulations girls. 

Goodbye Middle School. 

Family photo 

So proud 

The girls have been together since 2nd grade!

They staggered everyone so we were appropriately social distanced. 

The school does a mural for each class and the kids sign it. 

Class of 2024!

Cute sign. 

They also sign a banner for the teachers. 

We ran into Mrs Sierchio, the girls 6th grade teacher!

They love her!

Marcus had Mrs Sierchio too. She is retiring after this year so this is a special picture. 

Then the girls were supposed to walk into the gym. 

They took a family picture. 

Then enthusiastically announced their names. Emma first. 

Followed by Olivia. 

Time for friends. 

They missed their friends so much!

They haven’t seen some of these kids since March 13th when school was closed for COVID. 

The girls had lots of photo ideas...I just followed and clicked. 

Their basketball coach!

CONGRATULATIONS!  Next up HIGH SCHOOL!
