Sleeping Boys

I've taken several pictures the last few days of the boys sleeping, not sure why but they've just looked so cute.

A New School Year

School started on August 22 and I now have 3 school age kids!

Alex started 10th grade, Matthew started 2nd grade and Ryan started Kindergarten. It was so sweet of Alex to come to the elementary school and drop off her brothers.

A Glimpse at Summer

Since I'm sending the kids off to school tomorrow (and I haven't blogged all summer) I thought I would do a quick post about our summer.

We went to Surfside Beach, TX in July

The boys went on their first fishing trip with Dad in June (mommy got 4 days of mommy time)

My mom and Nephew came in for a visit in June, and the cousins had a blast together. We visited the Zoo and did lots of swimming

Pre-K Graduation

Ryan graduated from Pre-K back in mid May, they performed for us then their names were read and they received a certificate.

The pictures are of Ryan on stage and with his AWESOME teachers! The video is of him receiving his certificate.

Art Show

Ryan's class had art week last week where they learned about several different artists including Matisse, Van Gogh and Jackson Pollock. The kids in the class decided to do an art show to raise money for Japan Relief. Here is an article published in the local online paper about the class:

These are some pictures of Ryan doing his art...

So far behind, where do I start...

I haven't really been keeping up with my posts, it seems much easier to just upload my pictures to facebook. Here are a few random pictures from the last month
