Back to School!

 

 

The boys and I started back to school this week!  I am back to teaching first grade but it's a new school so it was VERY busy.  Charlie is in preschool and Sully started 2nd grade.  Both boys had a great week and like their new teachers.  It will be nice to relax this weekend!

Children's Museum!

It's been cooler this week with some cloudy and rainy weather on some days.  So we decided to check out the local children's museum earlier in the week.  Lots of other people had the same idea for an outing on a rainy morning so I'm glad we got there early.  When we left around 11, there was a line and a wait to get in!  The boys enjoyed exploring all of the exhibits!

Welcome Penelope!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rebecca and Matt welcomed their third child on August 9th!  Andy and I were lucky enough to visit on the day she was born.  The kids had to wait until she came home so they met their new cousin for the first time yesterday. Sully couldn't get enough of little Penelope!  He wanted to hold her and couldn't believe how soft her hair was and how tiny she was.  We were even able to get a picture of all the cousins together which can be near impossible these days.  It's an exciting time!

Update!

We have been having a great summer!  It has been spent mostly at the pool trying to beat the heat. We have also done some visiting with family.  Uncle Scott came over for dinner last night and the boys wore him out with baseball, games, and their constant energy!
