Last Swim of the Year??

We had a grand time at Grandpa and Grandma's house today!  Must've spent at least three hours in the water.  We hope this isn't the end of swimming season for the year, but it is Labor Day weekend already.

Camryn, Bailey and Lukie playing with the noodles

Gregory's "action" shot

Did you know if you blow on one end of a noodle you can act like an elephant?

Notice the sports gear?  Laker shorts, da Raider shorts and a Michigan shirt!

New Friend

Meet Lizzy

Kids found her in the backyard tonight and she is quite friendly!

All was fine and dandy until she crawled up Gregory's arm into his "PIT"!  I had to rescue her from the back of his neck and all was fine again.  

First Day of School!

Today our kiddies started school!  Bailey is in Mrs. Schinske's 3rd grade class and Gregory is in Mrs. Judice's 1st grade class.  They are both quite excited and enjoyed their first day of school.  Today they only went for a few hours and were home by noon.  Tomorrow is Wacky Wednesday (minimum day) and starting Thursday we will be on a full day schedule.  Homework has already started, but I think I came home with the most!  

My two babies are growing up!

CELEBRATE!

 Well, summer has finally come to an end!  School starts tomorrow and we are SO EXCITED!  So excited we had to celebrate with an ice cream sandwich from CREAM!

There's a new ice cream shop in Walnut Creek called CREAM

They serve these yummy ice cream sandwich treats ~ Here's Gregory's chocolate chip cookie and strawberry ice cream sandwich

AND best of all, they also sell VEGAN ice cream AND cookies!  Bailey picked Tuxedo cookies with mint chip ice cream!  Whoo hoo! 

Today ~

Now that Daddy is finished with the front yard (well, the grass part), he decided to start another project!  

The squirrels chewed up our pergola so Daddy is going to use our old deck wood to repair it

He's making good use of our beautiful patio

Look at the beautiful flowers I found when I woke up!  Daddy bought them for our anniversary ~

The kids gave us zucchinis 

Look!  They are bigger than Gregory's hand!

Happy Anniversary, Baby!
