Sunday blog post

This week was busy with school activities, swimming, improv, and summer planning.

Last Wednesday, my sons school, Randolph Elementary held its school picnic 🌳. They had several food trucks on site 🚚🍔🌮 along with activities for students and families.it’s interesting to see think about the contrast between the school that I went to as a kid and his because we never had quite so many kids bike to school, even though that was the thing to do back then —like these kids do at my son’s school.

And back in the day our school never had nearly enough money to bring in food trucks !

With the school year coming to a close, we've also been getting ready for some of the end-of-year events. We gathered supplies for Fort Day ⛺ and packed some games for Board Game Day 🎲. One of my favorite board games is Guess Who?

Randolph Elementary (St Paul) offers a lot of opportunities for students. My son has participated in after-school programs, school events, and activities with friends throughout the year.

On Thursday, I took my son swimming at the YMCA 🏊‍♂️.

On Friday, we attended a birthday party at the rec center 🎂🎉. One of the activities involved throwing ping-pong balls into cups 🏓🥤, and there were lots of kids running around and having fun. Watching them interact made me wonder what they'll be like when they're all in college someday 😏.

I also met with some of the performers from Waxy Comedy 🎭🎹 at a friend's house for rehearsal. Waxy Comedy is the troupe that I lead, and we're getting ready for our upcoming performance at Improvocation on June 10 at Phoenix Theatre. We spent time rehearsing musical improv and discussing upcoming summer events for the group.

, it was a full week with school activities, swimming, a birthday party, improv rehearsal, and preparations for summer. ☀️
