First Day!!!

Connor's 1st day of 1st grade! First of all I'm patting myself on the back for getting him all ready for school a little early and we were able to play a lot right before he went back to school. School supplies, clothes, haircut, underwear, socks, food for lunches...the whole dang thing. CHECK!








I got him some nicer clothes, but for the first day..he wanted to wear something that would match his lunch box. Awesome. How do you say no to that? So cute & so excited... I'm so proud of him. He was soo after school that I put a note in his lunch. It's the little things :)




with his new teacher Ms. Schmitt



AND by the way the weekend before school started Connor got new glasses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He told me last week he was having trouble seeing so he went to the eye doctor Friday and turns out one of his eyes is doing almost all of the work for him to see. So he is supposed to wear a patch in the evenings for 2 hrs. Oh boy. And you should see the glasses...so cute!!! And so thick on one side. He is 100% adorable in them tho!

A Good Night (for once)

Connor wanted to see Ponyo for the FHE activity last night so that was on the schedule. I picked the boys up after work and...they got right in the car (crazy!) and we went home and had the FHE lesson on Following Jesus. Both the boys were so good..both sang and offered to say the prayers & made thoughtful comments duing the lesson (crazy!) We had dinner and everyone got along and helped clean up (crazy!) We packed up our treats and headed to the movie and had a great time.

I get sooo frustrated on a daily basis with them fighting and not listening when I ask them to do things. It was so nice to enjoy our time together instead of it being miserable with everything being difficult. Thank you boys!

P.S. A favorite quote from Wyatt during the lesson..."Jesus is like Handy Manny. He helps everyone and fixes anything."

Oh nothing really......

Summer has been zooming by without much posting going on... Here's a few pics taken this weekend. We went to the buffet at Sam's Town and Connor said the food he got was his 2nd favorite and that his mom's cooking was #1. Gotta love that kid. me with my "sweet angels" aka naughty little suckers



The Duke's know all about this pic......we all watched Wyatt sneaking jello out of the serving dish when we "weren't looking." Robin finally just got it down for him to finish. Can't really tell in the pic, but the bowl & spoon are huge.
