School Days

Today our son started first grade. It was a great day and a huge step for him. Last year he had some problems with separation anxiety towards the end of the year. Today was the total opposite! He got out of the car, said goodbye and left. He didn't even want Mommy to walk him in, which was bittersweet. We are sooooo happy that today went smoothly though, and are hoping for great things to come this school year. Our boy is growing up!!!

Blast Off!

Today was the last day of summer break. It's hard to believe that tomorrow our son becomes a 1st grader! We have been soooo busy this past weekend, trying to get in the "last hoorah" as they say. We took the kids to a water park and amusement park, to the lake, and today to shoot rockets. It's been a crazy, fun, and busy weekend and a great end to the summer. Here are pics of our not so little boy launching his model rockets. He was soooo excited the burn ban was finally over and he could launch them again! He was even more excited that his Ya-Ya and Papaw came to see it. We ended the day by grilling steaks and having them over for dinner. What a great day!
