1st Day of School

It's official! Both of my babies are in elementary school! How time flies! Claire started Kindergarten and Parker started 3rd grade.  They both love their teachers and have friends in their classes. 

I stole this idea from Pinterest and made these goldfish snacks for both of their classes.  Fun!

Lucy Cate Is Here!

Little Lucy Cate arrived August 4th.  We are already in love!

She makes me a GREAT-AUNT!!! (I knew I'd been looking a little wrinkled lately)

A Full Day

Yesterday, we went to lunch with Amanda & Nana.  We have been on baby watch for a while now...

 Then we needed to use up some time so we stopped by Dairy Queen.  Look who was there!

Anna & Nana

Parker, Claire, Gracie & Will

Then off for a haircut

Claire found a fun way to pass the time

and Parker left with a faux-hawk! A temporary faux-hawk I might add!



Old Friends Are Great Friends

A few times a year, my cousin Krista (in the blue) comes in for a visit.  Our little group of friends always tries to get together for lunch or dinner.  When she was here recently, we went to Masaki and then tried Menchies.  We laughed a lot and had a wonderful time as usual. 

Jennifer, Anna, Alana & Krista

Livin' it up at the lake!

Chuck E. Cheese

Somehow Chuck E. Cheese just never gets old for my people...
