Crazy....

Things have been crazy here!! Emily Grace and Austin have started back to school this week. Em is in the 4th grade and is changing classes with within her grade level and has a locker....can we say this is too close to middle school??

She was so ready to get to class and for me to quit taking her pic!! LOL She is also cheerleading this year and is very excited about that. Football games will start in Sept. so our weekends will get even busier...but it will be soooooooo worth it.

And my sweet 2nd grader....he does love school...now spelling not so much....it is like pulling teeth to get him to study his words. I love his teacher and feel like she is going to be wonderful for him. He has had a growth spurt and has gotten taller...so now we are in between sizes 6/7...some are too short...some too long...sigh...we were going to put him into football this year but with him being sooooooo skinny (and he eats all the time!) we were afraid he would get clobbered. So we are going to just do baseball this year and maybe basketball with upwards and see how he is next year.

He did not want to smile....he was so concerned about people looking at him while I was trying to get his picture...LOL ...he also just wanted me to leave so he could get to class...I had wanted to take pics by the bulldog statue but it was raining.

We were also very, very, blessed to be able to get this:

It is soooooooooooo nice for the monkeys to have rear air (our 99 explorer that I have had for the last 9 years did not have it) and a third row....everyone has space and car rides are much more nicer and enjoyable. We are truly blessed!!

We were able to take a mini vacation to Destin this past weekend (pics to come) even though it rained on Sunday and we didn't get to go to the beach we still had a great time!!! I really love it there! :)
