Summer 2014

I can't believe summer is over! It went by so fast! But, it was a great great summer! The kids had a great time at summer camp, loved the beach, swimming, zoo, park, and the list goes on and on! 

Let's recap:

July started with the Riverton 5k, in which I came in 1st place for my age group, not bad! We then enjoyed a great parade followed by a BBQ with the kids and family! And it was very very hard not to enjoy the weather later that day, and in fact this entire summer! So beautiful!
Please notice that Mike dressed her and put her dress on backwards! Too cute!

We then went to SIC for a week with my family and everyone had a fantastic time! We had amazing weather and the kids played so well together!!

We also had a little pool here the kids loved to swim in:
We also enjoyed many days at Sally's pool.

In August we had a family wedding for Cassie, celebrated my moms birthday and went to OBX for the first time. 

The kids had a fabulous summer, and so did Mike & I. We are getting ready for the kids start school this week, they will be repeating the St. Charles Pre-3 this year. They were allowed to start early last year b/c of their birthday falling so close to the deadline. . But this year they are with the right kids and so excited, as are we! 

Hopefully I will post again soon with school pictures!
