First Day of School 2017-2018


After what seems to have been a fast summer, it was back to school on Tuesday.  After lots of late summer nights, I knew this first week of school was going to be a rude awakening!  And so far it has not been that bad however, I am sure by Friday, they will be exhausted.


Holden started a new school for 6th Grade while Rylan and Leyton are at the same school for 3rd and PreK.


Leyton was super excited for PreK but little did he know that we were assigned afternoon PreK which does not begin until 11:30.  So all morning he asked when was it time for school! Sigh.  Finally, his time had arrived and he was all smiles!

 

Praying that all three boys have a great school year!

TWELVE!

Holden turned 12 on August 30th.  I still can not believe we have a tween!  It has definitely been interesting around here.  Lots of new territory for us!

Instead of a big party this year, Holden opted for dinner out, chocolate cake and a friend to spend the night.  This plan worked out perfectly.  Holden's friend Luca came over and we went to the pool, had dinner, and ate cake. Just as our birthday boy wanted.



The next morning, everyone was up early begging to go fishing.  I swear these boys could fish all day!  So where do you think we went....fishing.


Leyton caught baby turtles while the others worked on their hand lining techniques.

 

All in all I have to say his 12th birthday was nothing exciting but just what he wanted, and that is all that matters.
