For summer to be starting, school had to end...and the transition for the kids has been smooth sailing! It's been a little rougher for me truth be told, haha but we are still paddling...it just feels uphill some days (wink, wink)! I miss the few hours of quiet time to get dinner ready or a load of laundry done, but on the flip side I love the lazy mornings sitting with the kids eating and chatting and drinking my coffee for longer than 10 minutes! Sawyer wrapped up a great year in the 3s at Gods Gifts! We got his teachers a baking themed gift and the card said, "thanks for cooking up such a great year" because his 2 teachers both love to cook and did a lot of cooking with the kids. They took extra time to make sure that it was all gluten free for Sawyer and we so appreciated that!!
Last Day smiles!
Then we celebrated 9 years of US on the 21st! It was such a fun celebration because Ryan surprised me and got a sitter the night before so we could go to dinner & took our anniversary off. Then my mom babysat the next night so we could go out for drinks! I don't think we have ever had 2 nights in a row just us since Griffin, so it felt like such a fun luxury!
Lucille is up to her normal shenanigans....
stealing bites of my yogurt and giving me ridiculously cute faces so I won't be mad!
Here she is at "dress like a princess day" for ballet class. She LOVED her first dance class even though she did way more dancing in preparation to go and mostly just stared at everyone else once she got there! She's a crack up in these ballet shoes!
Here she is in preparation to go to the lake for memorial day! All ready to kick off Grand Beach for the summer! (and in case you were wondering, these white pants didn't even make it to the car. She fell on her way from the deck to the driveway in some mud and i had to change her before we left! She was a cutie pie in that all American get up though!)
Griffin's last day was after we got back from a nice long holiday weekend at the lake! I still can't believe how fast his kindergarten year flew by! He's just made me so proud and excited to see where God takes him!
Waiting for the bus with the siblings and next door neighbor Teddy!
And the sweetest note from Ms. Pulsa in his class book!
And I can't forget to mention (because I am certain this will pass) these two's obsession with holding hands. She always holds out her little hand and says, " mee mee" (beanie) and he takes it with no hesitation and off they go. It melts my heart!
Lastly our sweet friends, the Egly's, had their 4th boy Luke and we got to hold him the day he came home! Nothing like a sweet fresh from God baby, is there?? Kathryn is beautiful as ever fresh from the hospital, and he is precious! Congrats guys!
