I really can't believe that school has started again. Where did the summer go? We had a crazy, but fun summer, and it went by way too fast. I was a little nervous for school to start today. My poor kids have gone to three different schools in three years and I was nervous for them to start another school today. I grew up in the same house my entire life, so I don't know how it feels to have to constantly make new friends. They're such troopers though, and are becoming very friendly and outgoing because of it.
Porter started 2nd grade today. He seems way too little to be in 2nd grade, but definitely smart enough. Maybe he'll hit his growth spurt this year.
Hannah started 4th grade today, which is only two years away from junior high. Yikes! That already makes me nervous.
I just love these two so much and am really going to miss them while they're in school.
This is Tate coming out of the fountains at Lagoon. It got so hot last week that we had to find lots of ways to keep cool. We had season passes to Lagoon, so one day, we just went in swimsuits and played in the fountains. I wish I would have done that more over the summer. It was so fun!

I've always thought Tate would have made a gorgeous girl, and this proves me right. Hannah dressed him up the other morning, and sadly enough, he loved it.
Porter has been trying to save money for a new lego set, so he made cookies and lemonade one Sunday and sold them to my family at a family party. He made signs and named his business, "Porter's Snack Shack." He worked hard and made $18.00. It was so cute, and he took it very seriously. He only has $30 more to go until he has the $90 saved up. That's a lot of money for a little kid to save.
We finished up swim lessons a few weeks ago. We were lucky enough to find a lady in the neighborhood that teaches lessons in her backyard pool. It was very handy to be able to send the kids without having to drag everybody to all the lessons.
