sidewalk chalk fun time

 

 

 

First day of school

 

 

 

 

Here are the pics I took of the kids on their first day of school.  Ellie is now in the 3rd grade and Gabe is in 1st grade.  Gabe had a hard time getting adjusted with school but he is doing great now.  Ellie is doing wonderful.  She loves her school and her teacher!  I am so proud of them both!!

Ellie and Gabe's First Soccor game

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is Ellie and Gabe's first year at sports and we were very lucky to get them both on the same team! It is not just any team!  We have an awesome coach and awesome kids on this team!  I know it is meant to be!  Ellie and Gabe are doing great at Soccor and having a good time.  The most important thing I want them to learn is how to have fun and it's okay to loose.  Practice makes perfect.  I love watching them play.

Poppa's birthday

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here are some pictures from Poppa's birthday!  We went to church with him and then we all went to eat at Outback!  The only one missing was Jesse. :(    We had a great time and enjoyed each others company. 

Visit with Aunt Rachel

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rachel and Nathan came over to visit  in September and we went to the gym and went swimming.  It was a beautiful day to go swimming! It seems like this year has flown by before I could even blink.  I am looking at pictures on my Picasa albums and some things seem like they happened yesterday and when I look at the date..I am in disbelief!  I am trying to document it before I forget all these special moments!  There just isn't enough time in the day it seems!  Here I am at 9:15 at night doing this when I should be in bed. :( 
Well, gotta go!

Here are some pictures from Danny's Birthday.  We had Poppa and Nana come over to celebrate.  We cooked dinner and ate cake and ice cream after.  We also watched the Saints play.   Family time = awesome day!
