New beginnings

Yep.  It is the night before some big changes around here.  You have probably already guessed it...Ben and Daniel start public school tomorrow.  Everyone is excited and ready...lunches are packed, clothes are laid out, and backpacks are by the front door.

I'm hoping that this big change in our family life will also mean a few changes in my life.  I'm hoping to blog more (that wouldn't take much as I haven't posted since June!), cook more, work more and basically just do more of the things that I've been wanting to do since those 2 boys arrived almost 5 years ago.

I have lots of topics and things that I want to blog about.  I want to tell you about how Ben's school year will go (at least how I hope it will go), I want to tell you about all the progress he's making, and I want to show you all the cool things that he's been working on at home.  But I won't do that tonight.  Tonight, I will just tell you that we had an AWESOME summer. 

This was our first summer with our trailer and we were out in it almost every weekend all summer long.   This summer, we...


Played in the water...

 

 

 

Went swimming...

 

 

 

Climbed on cool rocks....

 

 

 

Started using forearm crutches...

 

 

 

 

Played with friends....

 

 

Had fun with our brother....

 

 

And went on LOTS of bike rides...

 

 

 Plus a million other things.

I can't wait to start blogging here more often.  I hope that you all haven't given up on me...and still want to read what I have to write.

See you tomorrow...I'll be uploading "first day of school" pics as soon as I get home from dropping them off!
