Colin and Gabe's First Day Of School

September 8th Gabe and Colin started school. The first day of school there was a lot of running around. Gabe received a breathing treatment minutes from walking out the door. Gabe has really bad asthma during allergy season. We decided at the very last minute to send Gabe to Kindergarten. I am glad we did he loves school and it's only half day's.
When Colin got home I asked him if he had a good day and he said "No, I had a Great day. While the boys had a snack Colin and Gabe were telling me about the bus ride to school. They had some funny stories about the bus and school.

The Fair

Sunday September 6th our family visited the Walworth County Fair and had a great time. We saw some animals, trucks, good food, went on some rides and played a couple of games. The kids are already looking forward to next year.

Cool Shoe's

She loves her shoes. One of our problems with Lily is she has so much shoes and we have a hard time getting her to wear the appropriate shoes with the outfit. When Brandon's home she sometime wears two different shoes. She can be so indecisive like someone I know....

Back to School

Noah was so excited to go to school to see all his friends that he sincerely missed. He always brings 2 matchbox cars with him to school. It keeps him occupied on the bus. He struggled on which two to bring for the first day of school to show all his friends.

Noah ran to the bus

Lily and I waited excitedly for Noah for over 20 minutes

Just another Sunday

Sunday, August 30th Late afternoon Lily was chilling watching a movie we got from the Red Box. She got a little congested Sunday and was feeling a little under the weather.
While the boys had sometime to bond . An afternoon of riding bikes, playing tag and simply running around.
While Brandon was doing some tile work in the half bathroom.
And I enjoyed the day cleaning our house with my little helper in hand (Colin) and mowing the lawn.

Putting Colin to Work

Sunday morning I decided to Spring clean the whole house and decided to recruite Colin. Since he need new soccer shoes and I need some help and I thought we could work together. But he wasn't to happy with the idea of working for his shoes. He cleaned most of the windows, vaccummed the kids and his bedroom and the steps and we split up dusting. After all said and done I think Colin actually had fun. He was a big help. That night Colin got his soccer shoes.

Veggies Tonight and Every night until there're gone!

We have so many cucumbers Brandon can't eat them fast enough. We only have 2 tomato plants. We were sadden by the loss of our 2 cherry tomato plants that were riped out of the ground because of the horrible storms we had last month. The only thing I wanted from the garden was cherry tomatoes. Darn you storm....
