Some of my favorite Summer Pics

This summer we did a lot of playing, but of course I did not get as many pics as I could have and I still have way more than I needed. Here are some of my faves:

Grandma Suzy invited us over for slip-n-slide and kiddie pool fun

































We also went swimming at the pool in Grandma Shauna's neighborhood:




















Seriously. This little girl is such a diva sometimes. She was literally lounging in the sun while daddy pushed her around. Lounging. Like the spoiled little princess she knows she is.












Here we are watching the parade that daddy was in this summer. (Thanks Dad, Suzy, and Jeremy for coming with us to watch!)











Fun at Nana and Papa's house:












Can't have a summer without sidewalk chalk drawing.













A fun day at the park:

Back to School

Jayda is back to school as a 2nd grader this year. How time flies! It feels like yesterday that she was just a little preschooler. This is her second year in the Gifted and Talented Dual Immersion Language program. We were a little nervous starting her in it last year because we weren't sure if it would be too much for her learning Spanish and working a grade ahead, but she was up to the challenge and we are so proud of her! This year is going to be even more challenging because we started her in competitive gymnastics over the summer and she will be working out at the gym 12 hours a week on top of school. She is in love with gymnastics, though, so I cant imagine she will want to give it up anytime soon.

Tai started preschool this week. My little guy is growing up *wiping a tear* . Though I am gonna miss him at home, this kid is in desperate need of a social life--he is going to love playing with the kids in his class (and entertaining them--he is definitely the "class clown" type). We love you, Tai!
