Harry Potter Books

And she is DONE!  Miss E LOVES to read and just finished the final book of the Harry Potter series. She loved them, but now is a little bothered by what to read next.  ;-)

Gearing Up for Kindergarten

 Our little A had a fun first night of Gearing Up for Kindergarten!  It's hard to believe she will be going to Kindergarten next year!  WOW time flies!  

Happy Halloween 2016

Halloween Dance Program

Miss A did a great job at her Fall Dance show!

Birthday Puppy

Happy Birthday to Ruby!!!  She is now one years old!  She is as hyper/crazy as ever but we love her!  

Em, Dad, and Ruby Hunting

Girls can hunt too!!!  Em had a fun time being alone with Dad and Ruby this weekend hunting even though they didn't bring home any birds.  It was fun to just have some daddy/daughter time!  

Pheasant Hunting 2016

The boys had a fun evening after school one night.  Love these smiles!!! J was exited how well Ruby did.  Said she hunted like a veteran dog.  Pretty good for still being a puppy!

Pumpkin Patch 2106

We picked a beautiful fall day to head to a local pumpkin patch were we were able to pick our own pumpkins.  

E's 8th Birthday

E wanted to have a swimming birthday party, which was a lot of fun!  We kept commenting how much different girl parties are from boy parties!  Lots more energy, that's for sure! LOL  Happy Birthday E!  We love you and couldn't be more proud of you!

NDKA Conference

With my new job I had the opportunity to stay on the NDKA board as Vice President which is so much fun getting to still be a part of a wonderful organization and still be with all my old kindergarten co-workers/friends!

This years keynote speaker was Mr. Greg from the Kindergarten Smorgasbord.  

Ruby on the loose!

 Well somehow Ruby got out of her kennel today!!!  Not only did she tear apart the garbage but she also got into the house and had LOTS of fun rummaging through anything she could get her paws/teeth on!  Ufda!  It's a good thing she's cute or she would be gone!

Homecoming Week

 The kids had a blast dressing up for homecoming week!  

There they are for Dynamic Duo day with their friends:

Then Superhero Day:

Tacky Tourist Day:

Then Miss E was selected to help pull the Homecoming wagon/float!

Both kids at their first tourney! (Together)

E and E played in the same tourney together this weekend.   First of many I have a feeling!  It was a 3 on 3 tournament. They both did great!  Miss E's team took first and E's took third.  

Caterpillar Search

E's teacher asked them to bring any Monarch Caterpillars they could to class so they could watch them turn into butterflies.  E asked Grandpa to help her.  They searched and searched and finally found one, just when they were ready to give up!  The class loved it!

First day of dance

Miss A started another year of Just for Kix.  She was excited to go as her dance teacher is also her preschool/daycare teacher!  Plus, she was excited to see all her friends!

Flag Football Team Photo

E is having another great year of flag football this year.  They had so many boys sign up that they ended up forming two teams which was great!  Lots of fun watching these boys
