Jog-a-thon

Pictures from our school Jog-a-thon! It was so much fun. I was able to help with all three kids this year.

Sydney's class--The Townley Tornados

Matthew's class-The TK Tigers!

Kaycee's Class--The Speeding Trailblazers

The Big Matthew

Matthew turned 5! We had his first friends' party this year. I thought it would be a great idea to have it at the park, so that we didn't have 10 little boys running around our house! Well--we had a few incidents! One of Matthew's friends broke his wrist, one got a bloody nose, and one got stung by a bee! Next year we'll have consent forms ready. :) But despite that, the kids had a great time! Happy Birthday Matthew!

Trailblazers of the Month

We had two trailblazers this month! Matthew got his for academic excellence, and Kaycee for citizenship! Great job Kaycee and Matthew!

Our little monkey

Soccer!

First soccer game! Matthew is on the Kung Fu Panda team. Matthew is number 8. It was so fun to watch the kids play--at one point we had one girl crying cause the other team scored, and a little boy crying cause it was his turn to sit out! Ahh, gotta love the under 5 teams. It was a fun game--and most importantly Matthew had so much fun. Oh, great coaching by the way Jim and Dyana!

1st day of school

Our 8 weeks of summer went by in the blink of an eye--now we're back to school! Lauren is in 7th grade, Sydney 4th, Kaycee 2nd and Matthew kindergarten!

Bike riding

We've had a really nice summer weather wise. Almost every night we'd take a walk to a development that never quite got finished. The roads are paved, and plots for homes are done, but all the building has stopped. It makes for a great place to ride bikes, walk dogs, and jump from one plot to the next!
