Back To School...




Well...here we are...the first day back at school! Kindergarten and 3rd grade! WOW! They are growing up fast. Both girls were up and at 'em early this morning ready to sport new clothes and shoes. Hannah was a little nervous as we headed to school but Haleigh was ready (or so she thought). We dropped Hannah off first and wished her a great day. Then off to Haleigh's class where we come into a room full of crying children and parents! (Well, just two or three) The look on Haleigh's face was priceless! That look said, "Hey...I thought this was supposed to be fun...why is everyone so upset?" But she was a very BIG GIRL and did just awesome. I can't wait to pick them up this afternoon. Both girls seemed to have gotten really nice teachers this year. Haleigh ended up with two kids in her class from preschool. Hannah also has two really good friends in her class as well. I hope we have a great year!

Dog Days of Summer!

Well, summer is winding down. Actually, from the looks of the weather it might just be starting. We've been very fortunate weather wise this year. Only one week and one day until school is back in session...WOW! We find out teacher assignments tomorrow.
No pictures to post this week.
Last week we had Family Faith Week at church. This was in place of our annual VBS program. We had a children's evangelist from Kentucky lead our services. We had a great time!
Saturday we took a road trip to visit the newest member of the family...Shawn's niece, Randi Lee. She was born on Friday. She's such a cutie! We left the girls to stay the week with their Mimi & Papaw. If they make it this will be their longest stay away from home. We're missing them so much! I think even baby brother has noticed they are gone. Can't wait to see them tomorrow.
Last night we attended the Travs baseball game with First Kids Ministries at the new Dickey Stephens Park. They really have a nice facility. It was a little on the HOT side and of course the game had to go into extra innings. All in all it was a good time.
I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Swimming!







Here is Hunter enjoying his first swim. He loved his new floatie...thank you Nina! He loves the water. The girls liked swimming with him. Haleigh splashed him several times but he never cried. It's hard to believe that he'll be 3 mo. old on Friday. This summer has flown. School starts back up in two weeks. Haleigh will start kindergarten this year and Hannah will be in 3rd grade. I really enjoyed getting to spend most of the summer with all three kids.
