Iris, getting ready for prom night
Red eyes, pink wrist
These photos are from last week's prom, which Iris attended with her graduating boyfriend. I also have photos of Jamie's grade 7 grad from last week which I'll post soon. I need to resize them first for the web.
Speaking of Jamie, I just got back from picking him up from his camping trip. He hiked, fished, learned canoe safety, and generally had a blast. In fact he said if there were a shower and a grocery store out there, it would be heaven.
We made the one hour drive into town with his teacher Ken. Ken is an amazing guy. He clearly loves his job and the kids, and I think Jamie is one of his favourites. He asked if he could take him golfing on Friday morning. Jamie of course is thrilled.
Ken is from my home town. In fact he knows the house in which I grew up - he used to drive by it all the time on the way to Alysford Lake, a popular cottage spot. He also played gigs at some of the spots I visited once I was of drinking age, although I don't recall ever seeing him perform. He hasn't had time to play lately, but he says when his wife goes away for a couple of weeks this summer he's going to pull out both his electric guitars and turn his place into a 'rock and roll haven'. What is it with wives who don't like to hear their husbands play guitar??
