Eli's 8!

He asked Mallory to bake him a "basketball cake."  Unfortunately, while we were celebrating his birthday at the Japanese Steakhouse...Bella helped herself to the right front corner.

Week 34:52 {Intense}...

Sending this one off to his first day of Kindergarten...



Home...

"It was fun but long.  I don't want to go back."

Will's First Day of K...

He had difficulty falling asleep the night before.  He said "K is going to be like for 30 years.  And 10 hours long!"  He finally slept but woke up with the same feelings.  Growing up is tough!  Thankfully his brothers and our neighbors came to the rescue the morning of school.  Our sweet friend Mallory (that bakes such beautiful cakes) brought Will a special cupcake with sprinkles and his name on top.  The boys and Daphne encouraged him and by 8:00 he was walking up the bus steps.

Back to School...

It's always difficult to say goodbye to summer and get back into the routine of school days.  The boys did well this week.  Especially Josh as he transitioned to a new school for 5th grade and adjusted to a 6:45 bus pick up! 

Micaiah is off to 7th grade this year. 
Will made an appearance at the bus stop on the first day of school but didn't attend until later in the week.


Eli is off to 2nd grade.

Week 31:52 {Adventure}...

He has really missed horseback riding.  So thankful one of our neighbors invited him to the barn to ride her horse last evening.
