Taylor started 1st grade on Thursday. I can hardly believe it! She was very excited so I am happy for her although I still cried. Being away at school all day is going to be quite an adjustment for Emma & Ella, too. At least they have each other. Taylor is sitting at her desk in the top photo and with her teacher, Mrs. Johnson below that. There are 4 1st grade teachers. Taylor has some friends that she had in kindergarten and many new friends to meet in her class. The last photo is the gang that walks together everyday. L to R: Taylor, Ashley, Anna, Sarah, Tanner, Ethan and Matt. I think it will be a great year!
Dave and I celebrated our 9 year anniversary on Wednesday. We promised not to exchange gifts but I got this beautiful rose bouquet from him. I kept my promise so he got nothing!
This was a few weeks back but the photos are so cute I still have to share them. Dave and I were honored to stand up with Tom's sister, Tammy, as god parents for JT. This was the whole gang after the ceremony with Calla being quite shy. Proud sister Hope and Taylor are holding JT below.
Well, I know its been awhile but we are still here winding up the summer. We have been busy doing lots of odds and ends but no real photos to share. We have been spending our last few days of summer, before school starts, playing at the park, riding our bikes(Taylor is practicing with NO training wheels), swimming and hanging out with friends.We will have lots of photos to share this week with the first day of school starting and Mimi will be home for a quick visit. Check back soon!
