Hello Cole and Austin!

Hi Cole and Austin,

Thanks for writing back. Wow! You both are having lots of fun. I'm so glad to hear you did the reading program Austin. Good luck with football. Hope you keep passing levels in swimming. I passed all the levels when I was a kid and actually became a lifeguard and swim instructor. I taught swim lessons for about 6 years.

Cole...Sounds like you are having a great summer too. I bet you had fun in Michigan. I haven't been to Michigan in a really long time. My parent live on a lake in Tomahawk and I went water skiing during the 4th of July!

At Disney World, I didn't get to ride any of the big rollercoasters because Hailey was too little. I did take her on Goofy's Barnstormer Rollercoaster and we had a blast...we rode it 3 times! I also loved Animal Kingdom. We had front row seats at the Lion King show and Hailey got to dance with all the people. I also got to meet Cinderella, Handy Manny, Pooh, and a ton of other characters. Hailey got all their autographs!

We took Hailey, Brock, and Brayden camping last weekend for the first time. Brock and Brayden loved swimming in the pool. They also really enjoyed the playground. We are going to go camping one more time this summer before school starts.

I bet you are getting excited to find out who your teachers will be! I'm sure you will have a blast in third grade. You might get a little more homework though!!

Enjoy the rest of your summer!
Mrs. Wiedeman
