Pumpkins and Friends
































We had so much fun marching out to Remlinger Farms this year with our friends Brenna, Paul, Molly, and Jack. The weather was BEAUTIFUL and the kids were loving life. As you can see, pumpkins wore Claire out!

A Big Day!




Nolan started preschool today! He marched right into class and showed off his Transformer backpack! I was definitely more anxious than he was. He's just growing up so fast! What a great day!

Golf, Fishing, and all Nana's Fault






We spent some quality family time playing miniature golf and fishing. The golfing part proved quite tricky with Claire in tow but as you can see, she was very focused on the problem at hand! The last picture is what I like to call "All my mother's fault." After all, she bought the goggles and gloves which Nolan insists on wearing anytime he's outside hanging out with Dad. We'll keep this one for the girlfriends!

What a summer!

Beautiful Claire Bear


Nolan "Helps" put in new floors!


Sweet Potatoes!

We have been so spoiled this summer. We have enjoyed 2 uninterrupted, glorious months together as a family. Now its back to school for all of us including Nolan! We have lots of changes to report! I'm heading to Cascade Elementary to teach 1st grade. Brian is still a math coach at Nelsen, but will be an "EA" at Campbell Hill Elementary as well! An EA is a supportive administrative role and he's very excited to move forward with his hopes of becoming a principal some day! Finally our little boy is off to preschool! He's so excited. We know it will be a great experience for him. Claire and Nolan will be joining Grandma Barb and Grandpa Don at their home while we're at school this year. Although it is hard to head back to work, we know they are surrounded by love in our absence. Much love to all of you out there!
