A girl and her dog enjoying the last days of summer.
Yay! Al's braces finally came off!
AND... he got his official license on the same day!! Here is running his first mom driving circle. Bro to middle school band camp and himself to marching band camp.
Ryan feeling safe riding with the big bro.
I totally should have photographed the bowl of caramel popcorn I made while Alex was at band camp, but here is the recipe card from Aimee Wright. My kids LOVE this recipe. Alex went 2 yrs without it. He was glad to have a bucketful to himself!!
This was one of the hottest days in Dallas! But Dan and Macey's teammates went to the game together. FCD won. It was a great game (especially once the sun set!)
8th Grade schedule and locker day.
Marching band preview show.
First day of school. Dan took the pics of the other kids. :)
5th grade means learning the states and capitals for sister.
Happy Birthday lunch!
Cake for her backyard party.
I begged for an off site party, but Dad relented and threw this backyard field day party instead.
The usual suspects.
Just 2 dogs chillin' on my bed (and a sheep and a jellyfish too.)
Back to school equals volunteering for me. I had the joy of folding 250 t-shirts and helping distribute them to the marching band. I am helping the uniform chair with her difficult job. Also, choir starts this week, so I've been deep in emails getting our semester rolling! And, Activity Days took a hiatus, and it is time to start that back up today. I love using my smarts to help my kids' programs move along!
