Cute little 1 year old and new Bibles

We were so excited to get to celebrate a whole year of life with Caleb on the 13th!  He is such a joy and a busy little guy.  He loves life, food, and his family.  It has been such a blessing to have him nearby and watch him grow.


 Speaking of growing, each year the 2nd graders get a Bible from the church.  We've watched this happen every year for a long time and today it was our kids' turn.  Matt still has his Bible that he received from the church.  It's a great stepping stone from their little kid Bibles up to the adult Bible (with no pictures!).  So exciting!



First Day of School

On August 10, 2016, we started back to school with two 2nd graders.  Emerson was nervous and shy, but she had to pick out the fanciest dress she could find.
  

 Landon was excited and full of hope for a new year.
 Emerson is in Mrs. Clark's class and Landon is in Mrs. Garey's class.
They are both loving their teachers and working hard.  It is always a hard transition to go from 4 people off work and school all summer to everyone back in a routine.  It takes a few weeks to iron out the kinks and to stop from having breakdowns every Friday night. :)  But we're doing great.  It's so exciting to see what a new school year brings.

End of summer pictures

Yes, I realize it is not technically the end of summer yet.  But with school back in session (we've got a whole 13 days in already), the carefree days of summer vacation are over for us.  But, we made a lot of great memories.
4H Fair
We spent 2 days at the fair this year.  On Saturday, our church helps in the pork producers building.  This year, the kids helped us out because we were serving drinks.  It was miserably hot (as you can see by their red faces), but they did a great job helping.  A highlight for them is always riding the rides.


This year, they had a really neat butterfly exhibit where you could go in a tent with a sugar stick and you could watch the butterflies eat.  It was really cool!



Our second day at the fair was a Wednesday.  We went to watch Grace show her pigs and then since it was kids day, the kids wanted to ride more rides.  I love that they are getting more adventurous and want to do the big rides now!  We had a great time on another blazing hot day.

Soccer
The soccer season ended the Saturday before school started.  The kids had so much fun this season.

Landon enjoyed the physical part of the game where Emmy enjoyed the social aspect of it. :)

Great season Marlins!

Strikes and Spares
On the last day before I had to head back to work, the kids decided they wanted to go to Strikes and Spares in Mishawaka.  We had a fun day mini bowling, riding bumper cars, mini golfing, and playing arcade games.  I also snuck in a little school shopping at Old Navy. :)
