School bells ring!

The bells are ringing for TJ and I to go back to work!  I am loving it so far.  Working part-time so I can enjoy all of the wonderful moments of my kids lives is something I will always cherish!  Today I was able to bring Layna to her first day of preschool.  I can't bleieve that she is already in school.  I knew she would love it.  She keeps talking about when she is 5 years old she gets to go on a bus to kindergarden....Really Layna....lets continue to pull at mommy's heartstrings.  Lets get through preschool first!  When I brought her to school she walked right in and could care less where I was.  Lovely...the independence already begins.  This should be an interesting year.....she is the only girl in the class.  She will continue to hold her throne even at school.  Maybe dance class will be in the near future to balance it out....Shhhhh don't tell TJ.

How is summer over already?

This summer was one to remember.  We didn't do much but hangout outside all day everyday....Isn't that whats summer about anyway?  We enjoyed picnics on the green, walks for ice cream or to the farmers market every Thursday.  We hung out on papa's boat a couple of times and played in the pool at the marina.  Layna and Hunter both loved the water.  Hunter enjoyed the slide at Auntie Jackie's pool and Layna loved to just float around in her little tube.  I am sure that he is going to be the daredevil of the family. We enjoyed a fun filled afternoon with some great friends at the Beardsley Zoo.  I loved every single moment of our simple summer. I am so grateful that we are able to spend our summers together as a family.
