Back to School

I can't believe summer is already over and that it's time to send the kids back to school. I now have 3 going to school all day long...wierd! Gracie slept until 10 this morning and when she woke up she walked all through the house looking for her brother's and sister. She was pretty sad to say the least:( She's pretty much been Ellie's little side kick all summer so it's a good thing she'll be starting preschool in a couple of weeks. Here they are heading off for the first day!!! (Matthew-5th grade, Zach-2nd grade and Ellie-1st grade).

Fun on the Lake with Friends!!!

We've had a lot of fun playing with our friends on the lake this summer. Mathew and Zach were able to try skiing for the first time and the girls love to ride on the tube. We have the best neighbors ever--thanks guys!!!!






Here are the boys trying to get up on the ski's. Zach got up but let go...I think he got scared and didn't know what to do. Look at that scared face:) Matthew got up as well. I was so proud of them. I think it took me about 10 tries before I got up when I tried for the first time.







Josh had the day off work and was able to hang out with us this day. The boys were so excited to ride on the tube with there dad. Matthew won the prize for hanging on the longest while going so fast!!!!
