Back to School

School started last Monday for us. Both kids got the teachers we had been praying for all summer. Brock is in Ms. Gilbreath's class (she was also Addison's kindergarten teacher). He loves her mostly because he KNOWS she loves him. He has some good friends in there too, so it is going to be a great year for B. Addison is in Mrs. Pine's class. Michael and I are a little worried that Mrs. P is going to kidnap our girl. They are two peas in a pod! Foo-foo, Bling-bling, etc. Addison is in heaven :)
We couldn't be happier for our kiddos! Brock with Ms. Gilbreath....the most precious 1st grade teacher.


Addison with Mrs. Pine.....the best 3rd grade teacher in the world!

We had a little storm blow through that afternoon. Thankfully Michael was home and was able to get the dogs inside before the winds hit. This is the result of some nice straight-line winds. Yes, we just bought that trampoline in June!

Can you spot the trampoline in this picture?
The nice green circle where the trampoline use to be.


The trampoline didn't go down without a fight.
It took the swingset with it.



Time for a backyard makeover!

Fun on the Lake

Some of our friends bought a boat a few weeks ago. They invited us out with them last weekend to go tubing. This was a first for our kids. Brock had no fear. Addison had to have some convincing that she would have fun. Our sweet girls, Jenna & Addison

Precious little Conner

My favorite little man

Addison's first time on the tube was hard, but she soon loosened up and had a great time.


Tyler and Addison having a turn and lovin' it!


Conner and Brock

I think their faces said it all.


When they got too hot, all the kids (big and small) jumped in the lake.

MMMMMM......Lake Water :)






Last but not least, the big boys joined the fun.

Addison and Michael getting ready to take off.


Here they go....


Michael had just as much fun as the kids.


Thank you, Mark and Jennifer, we all had a great time!
