School



We started back to school last week and it is going really good. Timothy Ministry started last Tuesday too. I think all of the kids like their classes. Lettie and Owen are taking more classes this year than last. Lettie is taking 2 hours of dance and also a Science class and Art class. Owen is taking Spanish, Science, Ancient History, and Cursive. Ella is taking some classes this year and she is SOOO excited about it. She is taking dance like she did last year but she is also taking a Letters class and an Art class. After we got home the first day, Owen told me that he was embarrassed when I made them stand out front and take this picture. Ooops! Guess that is my job! Ella doesn't look embarrassed!
Last week I stayed the whole morning and hung out in the lobby to make sure the kids found their rooms and didn't have any problems. Today, I went to Target ALL BY MYSELF...and then I had lunch at Zaxby's. It was nice but kind of weird too!



Ella is about to go into her first class on her first day of school!

She does look a little bit like me...Ya think?













Ella loves to have her Daddy all to herself.





















Eating dessert at Goosa Granny's Birthday Party....I think he gets his "sweet tooth" from his mother!

Tell Me it Isn't So!

Is summer really almost over? It can't be! I am not ready! Where has the time gone? I asked Lettie yesterday while we were waiting in the grocery line "when she wanted to start school?" She responded very seriously "Never!" I laughed and then told her that wasn't really one of her options. I also reminded her that the later we start the later we will get done. She then agreed that maybe we should start in the near future.
Ella is very excited because she is going to be taking some classes at Timothy this year. She feels so big when she gets to do things that her big sister and brother are doing. She is taking a letters class, an art class, and dance class.
Owen has started back full force into soccer now too. He plays in a 5v5 tournament this weekend. He had a great time at MSU soccer camp last week. He even got an MVP award!

There were lots of fun trips this summer to grandparents houses and friends houses and six flags and water parks. What a busy fun summer!
