End of the Summer . . .
So Baby A and Baby B started 1st grade yesterday. I cannot believe that my babies are now sitting in desks with their pencils in boxes. B was so excited to have a pencil sharpener on the wall . . . it was a big improvement in the classroom for her compared to Kindergarten. Gem was sad for a moment and then realized she had Daddy and me all to herself. She also could play with any of the toys and nobody was going to take it away . . . she was in heaven. And actually still is enjoying the quiet this second morning of school too.
This past weekend, Dh had his company picnic at Stone Mountain Park. It was SO hot but we really did have a good time. Daddy and the big girls competed in the relay races: a tug of war, water balloon toss, potato sack race and the pink flamingo race! Gem and I enjoyed the moon bounce but I thought you all might like to see at least Dh doing the pink flamingo race!! It was worth the heat and dehydration for that pic!!
And since we were at the park, we thought we might take some cute family photos. But the girls were hot and exhausted, as were dh and I, so these are the best 3 of about 40. And you really can't see the Stone Mountain carving either . . . so no Christmas card pic is coming out of this bunch!
This is how the girls really enjoyed their summer . . . riding bikes!
And here was just a pose for the camera day on the deck! There were no good ones of the 3 of them all together, so this Christmas pic might just have to be a collage pic!
And as a last big event of the summer, Kelli and her crew came to visit! We were even doubly blessed when Summer and her crew came up from Southern GA too!! We had SO much fun hanging out with Summer and her hubby . . . seriously, wish they all lived closer!!
(I love this pic . . . it describes now Kelli and felt at the end of each day!)
But the kids had a blast together and even if Kelli and I were exhausted, it was totally worth it!! Although next summer, Kelli and I are hiring a babysitter for a couple days and getting pedicures, manicures and shopping without the crew!!
