We couldn’t get in focus photos, but he had a great time. Sonora and Andrew hung out a bunch. And we brought Danelle’s dad Henry with us! … Continue reading “Avery Spotlight Singers at Cardinals Game – 5/6/2015”
The Avery Elementary 3rd grade took a field trip to Clay Elementary. Sonora wanted me to go, so I took a long lunch and joined her class on the field trip.

Being in St. Louis, it won’t come as a shock to anybody that there are several St. Louis Cardinal baseball fans in the office. One in particular, Kris, was in for a shock when he came back from vacation. While he was out of the office, I decorated his office with Chicago Cubs (their arch-rival) … Continue reading “Cubs Prank – 3/14/2015”
