Hello August. . . Good Bye August!

Good grief! Summer is over. Well, the good parts of summer are over- the heat and humidity remain. We’ve been busy as usual. Arden was out of school for a couple of days for teacher inservice, then Stratton was out a couple of days between summer program and school starting back. So our schedules have been a little off track- which seems to make for cranky kids. I helped Brandye setup her baby registry at Target! That was fun! I’m excited for baby Darcy to get here! Maybe it will help cure my baby fever! And I’m having too much fun looking at matching outfits for “the girls”! So far I’ve only purchased one. . .

We’ve spent a lot of time on the weekends at Gigi and Pop’s house swimming!

Jarrod and I got to sneak away to Little Rock for a night out! Much needed!!

We had Jessica King (TRY) to take the kids pictures. . .

. . . of course this was a Monday night, so they were tired but they were in RARE form. It was soo hot and humid and the mosquitos were unbearable! The only thing that got Arden to even crack a smile was Stratton putting FROGS on his head. I am anxious to see how many pictures Jessica had to Photoshop to remove the frog from the picture. I bet that was a first for her! The rest of the pictures should be coming soon- I hope! I really hope she got some good ones of them together, but who knows!

The kids helped Gigi “make” icing for Aunt Kay’s birthday cake. Hmmm. . .looks like a good gig to me!

A {rare} moment of sweetness. . .

Stratton’s last day at Excel- I think he’s most disappointed  about not having swim day and field trip day once a week! The summer program was so much fun!

We had Kindergarten Open House. He wasn’t in the best mood when we went, but he got better when we got to his class and he got to meet his teacher. We’ve also been to the Kindergarten parent meeting. WOW. So much information. I was a little overwhelmed. They are going to learn so much this year! (I will have pictures from his first day in my next post!)

I tried and TRIED to get him to let me take a picture in front of his room. This is all I got. . . Nice- huh!

Jarrod and I went to the ASU Touchdown Club banquet with some friends from church last night. We had a great time! Some of us girls got our picture taken with Howl and Scarlett! Aren’t they cute!
