Preschool

 Samuel was excited to start preschool.  He will be attending southwood 3 days a week. He was excited that on his 1st day he was in charge of snacks!

Amelia's 7th Birthday

 Amelia celebrated her 7th birthday on Sat. Sept 7th with a friend party at the house.

 Games in the backyard... it was a 90 degree day!!

 Showering off the craft they made.

 A fun time was had by all!

Family party

 With the kids birthday's being 2 weeks apart, we do a combined family party that brings Grandparents, Aunt/Uncles and cousins together to celebrate.  This year it happened to fall on Amelia's actual birthday.

1st grade

 School is here again!!  Amelia is off to 1st grade... gone all day!  She is so excited and ready.

We get up at 7 and leave by 7:45 to head to Lynell's to get the bus at 8am

 All ready to go...

 Ready to go... Samuel and I will miss her, but we know she will do great!

This was her planned back to school outfit, but it was a bit cooler the first morning so we switched it up.  By Friday it was in the 90's (her school has no air-conditioning), so this was perfect.
