AUGUST 4, 2008
First day of 2nd Grade
Where has the summer gone? I can't believe school is back in session :-( The kids had a great summer. Luckily we were able to see Rusty every weekend during the summer (except this past weekend - he stayed in Augusta to study for finals but he will be home tomorrow for almost 2 weeks - YEAH).
I've posted some pictures below of Carrigan this morning. I can't believe my baby girl is in the 2nd Grade now. For those of you wondering if Alan got to go to school this year - No - he had to be 4 by September 1st and his birthday is September 8th. When he woke up this morning I pretended that I was his teacher and I we started working on his ABC's and 123's. He also worked on some coloring projects. I guess I'm going to kinda homeschool him with just fun activities as long as he's willing to learn!
I've also posted some pictures taken this summer of different things that the kids did.
I hope you enjoy!

Carrigan's First Day of 2nd Grade
Carrigan picked out her outfit this morning. Her backpack actually matches her outfit.
The diamonds on her shirt match the diamonds on her backpack!
She looked at me this morning and told me that she looks like a teenager!
Here she is on the phone talking to Rusty before she headed to the end of the
driveway for the bus!
The full view!
My toothless 7 year old. She is missing a total of 4 teeth on the top row!
Walking to the end of the driveway!
There she goes!

LIBRARY FUN!
The library had different activities going on this summer. Carrigan's bus driver came with his
birds one day! I loved that day! There was a guy that came with his snakes (we didn't go to that one) and there was a day when you got to go to different tables and make bug projects. The theme this year at the library was "Catch the Reading Bug". Below are some pictures that I took of the kids making their projects!

PROJECT WITH DADDY!
Rusty taught the kids how to make butterflies and fish out of coffee filters! The kids
had a great time doing a fun project with Daddy!

POOL TIME FUN!
Our neighbors got a new pool and invited us over for a swim. Thanks Mike and
Denise. We had a great time!
Kaylee, Alan and Hayden playing in the pool!
Alan thought this Lobster Float was the coolest thing. It took him a couple
of tries getting one but once he did...he went floating across the pool!

FRIED APPLE PIES
Carrigan got to spend a whole week at Grammy's. Thanks Mom - Carrigan had a great time
and she's already planning on going back next summer! She had a great time and thank you
Kandis and Matt for spending quality time with her! Mom she loved making earrings with you (all 20 or so pairs) and thanks for taking her to the library. She loved her whole vacation! :-)
While she was there - Mom taught her how to make Fried Apple Pies so of course she had to make some when she got home. Here are some pictures of she and Alan making the pies!
This is what they looked liked before I fried them.
Sorry I forgot to take a picture of the finished product!
We hope that everyone had a great summer! We did!!!
