September 5, First day of school for the boys!

Jack's bus is supposed to come at 8:35 a.m. which would give me plenty of time to get Sam to his school by 9 a.m., but it has been late both days so far. Our neighbor has been kind enough to take Sam to school which quite frankly he loves going with his buddy!

Jack was excited waiting for the bus, but when it arrived, oh my! he was pretty stoic the first day, but the second day he cried all the way to school. Let's hope Monday goes better!

August 28, First day for the girls!

The girls are ready for the first day! Marney catches the bus at 8:10 a.m.


Tracy catches the bus at 8:45 a.m.


Marney gets off the bus at 3:40 p.m.


Tracy gets home at 4:10.


Thank God I am home when they leave and when they get home. I feel as though I am living a dream!

Bathing Beauty Boys!

Next year should be a more relaxing summer in the pool with Jack. This summer he is too short to stand in the shallow water and he definitely has more enthusiasm for the water than skills. He refuses flotation devices; no one else wears them! How do they get so stubborn so young?

It has been fun, but somewhat stressful!

Noodle Races

It is the end of summer noodle races! You have to go down and back!

Fun with old friends . . .

How fun to have our friends from Aspen who now live in Massachusetts come to visit us for a few days. The kids became fast friends again and two moms had fun reconnecting!

Build Your Tomorrow Today . . .

Souvenirs from Atlanta!

A Spring turned Summer project . . .

The idea of a dream board kept popping up this spring and I thought it would be fun to do with the kids so I purchased all the stuff needed and started collecting magazines. Well, spring came and summer almost got away from us, but . . . we did it! The girls and I dreamed.
