The End?

We woke to temps in the upper 40's today because God was gently trying to convince me we have to wrap up our lazy summer days. Tonight we attended Kate's open house and spent some time getting to know her new teacher. She was so cheerful and happy that even Ty commented later that Kate's teacher likes to smile a lot. We couldn't be more pleased. Three polite young ladies introduced themselves to Kate and one parent handed me contact information so we could get the kids together prior to Thursday if needed to help Kate be comfortable in her new school. We were touched by how welcoming and friendly everyone was. School starts Thursday and our summer is over. I have accepted this truth with as much grace as I can muster but can't help but think it is just too soon.


We had a bonfire with smores followed by the movie, The Little Rascals tonight as tomorrow kicks off our school night routine. Some of us are handling the news better than others..........
I also have to say goodbye to our little friend, Karston as he will also return to school. We all just adore this little man. He is such a sweet boy.
So long little buddy. We will miss you.

It is way to soon for summer to be over. We are in our 3rd week of band camps and I am over it already. Between band and baseball our summer was around 5 weeks long. Not long enough for me! Ugh!!! On another note, the pic of Lauren and Kenna on your previous post is beautiful, and I think both of them should be dressed in potato sacks and locked in their rooms. Greg had better keep that rifle handy! LOL!
