First Day Fun

Grayson spent his first day at his new preschool.
He really liked his teacher Miss Sue.

He made a beautiful flower necklace for me during art time.

There was lots of time for play.
He really liked the classroom toys. A firetruck and a police car were his favorites.

There was even more playtime on the playground.
Grayson is really looking forward to his next day at school.

More Water I Say

Have I mentioned that Cole loves water?

When the slip and slide came out, Cole was ready to go.

Up and down he went on the slide for over an hour.

He never did manage to catch that water in his hands, but he will keep trying.

Roommates

We decided the time had come, to move Cole into the big boy's room.
Despite his doubtful look, Grayson was very excited.

I was excited too. Then I saw this picture.
I couldn't help thinking that I had just seen some frat boy move into the dorm room of a mild mannered student..
Party on Dudes!

Our Tween

Our little girl is growing up.
I had never really thought of her as a "tween". Then she started asking for magazines like Tiger Beat and hanging up the posters all over her walls. Next thing you know, she is asking me to take her for a haircut and asking to use my curling iron.
Where is that little girl I had to remind to brush her own hair?

Hemmelgarn Park

After many months of planning, construction began on the kids play structure.

After the second day, the club house was already taking shape.

Five days later, we had a roof for the clubhouse and a support for two swings.
I think I am more excited than the kids are.
After seven days we have a rock climbing wall, a steering wheel
and a telescope (Grayson's favorite).
Of course, It don't mean a thing if it aint got that swing.
Now, I am pleased to announce that Hemmelgarn Park is now complete.
