What to Do Before School Starts Back

These photos are from the last couple of weeks before school started. We tried to cram in as much fun as we could. :) This doesn't contain our Discovery Park pictures which I will post later.

Scout just wishing he could run free.

During a rather boring three day (!!!!!) inservice, I always looked forward to seeing what my Sobe Lifewater lid would say. 

Nothing better than running in the freshly mown grass.

The results of running in that grass.....

Mean you have to have a bath.

Headed out for girls back to school shopping in Jackson. First stop, Joanne's of course.

Ladies' lunch at Olive Garden.

Loving her Ever After High book so much that she can't stop even when we grocery shop. 

To celebrate National Hot Dog day, Scouter got his own wiener.

A trip to the Farmers' Market

Picking their own blackberry container. 

Sweet boy

Headed to celebrate National Hot Dog Day at the library.

A genius marketing plan. I love looking for names. 

This made my cup runneth over. 

A sleepover at Nana and Pop's

He walks in and immediately dumps his toys in the floor. Classic Harrison. 

Digging for names while out shopping for school supplies. 

Finding her school supply list. 

Lisa Frank is the color of my childhood also. :) Makes my heart happy to see this. 

First Day of School 2014-2015

School started back here on July 30th. Ava is in the 3rd grade and Harrison is in his last year of preschool. Ava was all smiles for her Back to School pictures, but as you can see, Harrison was having none of it.

I have prayed that both of them would have great school years and enjoy learning.

4th of July - Part 2

These are the rest of the 4th of July photos. Such a fun day!

4th of July - Part 1

This year we got to have the Annual 4th of July Cookout on the actual 4th of July. Since the 4th was on a Friday we were able to celebrate with Bo and Mike, who have never made it down on the 4th. What a fun time! We had not seen my side of the family since Christmas, so this get together was WAY overdue. What a fun time we had.

Bo and Mike came down the night before and then my parents came up on the actual 4th. Nana and Pop came over and we are until we were stuffed and then enjoyed a LONG game of Mexican Train Dominoes.

Fun memories of a great holiday!

He thinks he is Wolverine

Scout refused to stand still for a picture.

Once again, Scout wanted to be Gramps' best friend, but he was shut down. :)
