Another quick pic today…

Too busy for much else this week and I blame it on the PTO! I’ll catch up next week, I promise!

Another quick pic today…

Too busy for much else this week and I blame it on the PTO! I’ll catch up next week, I promise!
Yesterday the kids had a surprise visit from the best of the best!! Samantha couldn’t wait to get a big hug from Mrs. Susan!!

and the boys too!


We sure loved seeing her and catching up after way too long!

We love Mrs. Susan!!
Lots of fun friend time this weekend! Maxwell started it off Friday with the boy 6th grade pool party…



What a crew!
Spencer got to have two buddies over after school Friday…

and Samantha had a friend over too!!

We then also had the football combine, Maxwell’s first tennis tournament, two birthday parties and the swim banquet this weekend! Busy and fun!
Back to school!!

The kids headed out yesterday morning for 6th grade…

4th grade…

and 2nd grade! (in purple of course!)

It’s their last first day all together at MBE. I’m going to soak up watching them all walk to school together one last year!

Thankfully they all had a great day and were all smiles when they came home! Thumbs up from all (including Maxwell who was off with his friends at Gilchrist!)



School days, school days!
Today is the day! Back to school! We loved summer and sure are sad to see it go but we all thrive on routine and schedule and I know it will be a great year. Yesterday was a fun and full day! Samantha was at the school early and got to see some friends…

and be a mentor for a new girl in her grade.

Maxwell held court with his minions all day on the corner selling lemonade and cookies! That boy takes advantage of an opportunity!

Everyone got to meet their teacher. It’s totally not cool for a 6th grader to take a picture with his teacher but a 4th grader will still oblige (begrudgingly)….

and a 2nd grader will do it happily!!

As for me? I was PTOing really hard all day! From 7:30 to 2:30! Everything got done and everything went great. More to come on the PTO efforts but needless to say, it would not have gotten done nearly as well had my trusty assistant, GJ, not been in town to help!!

A great day all around and I know today will be the same! Back to school!!
