Rockwell’s final week in Switzerland.

I have a feeling he is really going to miss Switzerland.. I also have a feeling he might come back a slightly different child. Eyes a little wider open. 🙂 Thank you Aunt Teri and Uncle Juerg!

A fun day on the river! (although worn out I am guessing).

Asked Teri what this location is.

Lunch Break with Rockwell and Lars I guess.  13840539_10154428135297146_464947149_o

 

I’m dying to know what this place was about.

Looks like serious fun though.13814451_10154428028657146_1385887103_n

 

 

 

With Cousin Liv at the transportation museum I am pretty sure.13823384_10154422727292146_1367911821_n

The “Cross on the hill” as Aunt Teri called it.. You can barely see the Swill alps in the clouds.

They visited again later on with some friends. Teri said:

Ed we went up to the cross hill last night roasted marshmallows and let the kids run around until 11:00 at night..we were with my friend who has 4 kids younger than 9 and ours were really great with them..it was one of those perfect summer evenings!

Does that sound perfectly memorable or what??

Rockwell trying to do a little wakeboarding.. but I think the “Beach” is a little small to launch from, from what I can tell.

Visited Melinda at her Summer camp (SCGSAH)

Anyone that prejudges or underestimates Melinda is going to be surprised. I visited her at the Governors School today, and I watched her Interact with other students and people. She does this thing where she puts on a front that is not representative of her actual knowledge at all. I’m not sure why she does it, but I am entertained by it. She will act completely ignorant of a subject when I KNOW she is quite knowledgeable of it. She has a very silly/goofy side, that I know has real purpose.. I’m just not sure why she does it. But it clearly has purpose.
I love watching you Melinda. You are a force to recon with.

Hannah is preparing for school.

She is going AWAY to school.. not BACK to school. Hmm. Gonna’ miss her a tad more than I realized. Here is her first semester schedule. Entering as a.. Sophomore? Interesting. She clearly worked hard in high school. That stuff pays off sometimes.

What happenened to June?

Umm.. Two birthdays, and I totally failed to post about them. That was not very nice.
Rockwell left for Switzerland.
Hannah was VERY happy that 26 credits were applied to her college credit before she even entered.
