First Day of School

Here are pictures of Lukas on his first day of first grade. (no further comment from his mom at this time)

Day of Dread

The day that I have dreaded for six and a half years is only 4 days away...the first day of school. It hasn't snuck up on me because I have known it was coming; and I haven't just known it was coming, I've dreaded it's coming. I am not shocked that it is here, but I wish it was still six and half years away. Now when I ask "Where did that little, bow-legged chubby faced baby go?" I can answer, "He grew up and went to school" Oh my heart...

More Summer Fun!

Here are a few more pictures of what we have been up to this Summer (busy, but FUN!) Lukas and Kathryn took swimming lessons (according to Lukas, he is going to the Olympics in 2020 so we will be spending even more time at the pool! ;)

Spiderman Sighted in Lynden!

And I thought Spiderman was just pretend...

Summer Fun

I realize that it has been awhile since I last updated our blog. We have been busy having an AWESOME summer. After believing that summer would NEVER come (still 45 degrees in June!!!) we have had awesome weather and LOTS of fun. This has been one of the best summers we have had as a family - even with Phil working soooo hard on the house in addition to his regular job (what a man!). Anyway, I love summer, so we usually have lots of fun, but with 4 kids, I get to enjoy summer through their eyes...yet one more reason I love being a mom! Here are some pictures of what we have been up to:
