June was a really busy month! I was really happy to donate blood. We also celebrated our 7,500th unit collected!
I really enjoyed building the Sesame Street LEGO Ideas set! You can read about it here: Getting Personal #249: Sesame Street LEGO Ideas
We enjoyed Father’s Day with my dad and Grandpa! I asked Al to take an updated photo of the three of us, and he was so nice to do that.

The 2021 P.E.O. Virginia State Convention was really awesome. It was the first-ever virtual convention. I participated on Friday night by talking about the International Peace Scholarship (IPS), the project that I learned about over the last two years by being on the state committee. My co-chair and I had a great time telling the project room visitors about IPS and the recent recipients!
I was also very happy to learn that I passed 50,000 all-time views on the blog! Thank you, readers!

What about you? Did you have any goals for the month of June?
Come back tomorrow to see my goals for the month of July!
Until the next headline, Laura Beth 🙂
