Gavin has had lots going on as well. A few highlights:
Cub Scout Advancement
Gavin got his Bear award and advanced to the Webelos level. He got his rank advancement at a fun pack meeting where the boys made cardboard cars then ran a "Cub-anapolis 500". Gavin's double-knotted sneakers slowed him down when they came in for one of their pit stops and we couldn't switch his shoes fast enough!
Piano Recital
Gavin played a duet with his friend Owen and a piece called "Highland Jig" for his recital. There is a great group of kids his age that all take piano lessons, it's so fun to see them all perform together.
Brother's Day
We honored the best brother in our family with some presents and an angel food cake with strawberries and tons of whipped cream.
BookKids at the Museum
Gavin chose the BookKids book for June: a graphic novel about the Civil War. So we took the group to the Sullivan Museum at Norwich to see the Civil War exhibit. The museum staff were wonderful, they brought out lots of objects for the kids to see and touch. They even let them try on Civil War uniforms and heft the huge cannon. The kids were great, I was amazed at their attention span, they were so excited about everything.
