My big 3 year old...

Today Emily started her 2nd year of preschool at Farragut Church of Christ. She was so excited to don the backpack once a again and go to "school" like her brothers.

Her face is looking so old....I can't believe that the class she is in this year was Jackson's first teachers at FCC preschool and now HE is is kindergarten. Yikes!
She would not look at me at school for a picture but this is a good picture of her cute backpack.

Family Fun

Saturday we put our coupons from the summer library reading program to use. We played mini golf at Zuma for free and then headed to Bruster's for so free ice cream..sunday night we got free kids meals at McDonald's. The summer reading program is great and the kids are really enjoying their rewards.

Not so happy...they can do this pose really well.

Blueberry time

These pictures are a little out of order, but I forgot to post them. Last friday we went blueberry picking with my mom's group. We all had a blast.

Handsome boys

On Wednesdays the boys have to wear uniforms because it is chapel day. I could not resist taking their picture before the left for school this morning because they looked so handsome. Daddy looks pretty good too.

Jackson was all smiles this morning as he headed out the door.

While you are sleeping

Sunday afternoon I fell asleep on the couch..so nice of my husband to take a pic of me. I am not sure how I ended up with Emily's bitty baby.

Emily's Birthday Party

Saturday we had a few friends over for cake and pizza..then they played water games in the yard. It was so much fun.

Me and my girl...

I just had to post this picture alone because I cannot believe that Emily is growing up so quickly. My heart is broken...and my Jackson starts kindergarten on monday..also today is Micah's first day in pads at football...how is life passing so fast. I am trying to savor each moment, but wow...

Emily turns 3!!

I cannot believe my baby is 3...she chose Texas Roadhouse for dinner and then we came back home for cake (pink as requested) and presents. I will publish a picture of the bedroom furniture we got her once her bedding is finished.

A sad goodbye to a friend...

Last thursday night several of us went out to eat with Helen at Pelancho's. We were saying goodbye to Helen who is moving to Pittsburg. We will miss you Helen!!!
