Swimply, Trek, and Paul's teacher workshop

We rented a backyard pool on Pioneer Day. Nice, cold pool on a 100-degree day!
Grace before Trek.
Happy on Sunday:)
Grace at the pool.
Danny used fabric markers to decorate a shirt featuring Sheep Fashion. Now USA = sunglasses, headphones, and a mullet. 1820s England = monocle, top hat, and tails. That's Danny for ya.

Cool mushroom.
Another day, Paul's workshop involved synthetic snot. Squeeze it from the pipette to simulate a sneeze - gross!
On campus.
The peppers and pineapple were the best part.
Cooking party today to make cake and ice cream for Grace's return from Trek. We miss her!!
