On Monday August 24th the kids all started school!
Lizzie- preschool, Ms. Lisa
Isaac 2nd grade, Ms. Jennings
Emily 4th grade, Ms. Ostrom
Taylor - Jr. High at Clayton with 7 different classes.
It was an exciting day filled with tears & cheers! 

The kids were happy with their teachers /schedules etc... They were nervous and happy at the same time. We walked the younger kids to school, but Taylor went on his own with all his friends from Jr. High. 




It's a tradition to take pictures under the Browning Sign at the bottom of our street.
I feel so grateful and blessed that my kids have so many wonderful friends around. These are great kids who are terrific examples to my kids. I love our neighborhood and especially our street! 


These are my favorite kids in the whole world! I love them so much!
Lizzie was really into the pose! 


It was a long, hot week of school and getting back into the routine. So when the weekend came we were ready to play.
I took the kids to a fun park, slash pad to cool off.
Lizzie insists on her stuffed fox "Foxy" wears a seatbelt in the car too.
Lizzie has spent a lot of time this summer doing sidewalk chalk. She draws pictures and writes letters etc.. but mostly she makes lots and lots of "pixie dust". She grinds up the chalk and then puts it into a bowl. She is obsessed with this task and all her friend and cousins love it too. It's cute to watch her work so hard at something. She comes inside covered with chalk every time.
Here's a picture of taylor's schedule at school.
He has been scared and a little nervous, his classes, meeting new friends, and opening a locker have been stressful for him. But he's doing great and will have an awesome year!


Here's some art work from Lizzie , she loves to draw and color.
One day while everyone was at school we went to he zoo!
It was a lot of fun and not too crowded. Lizzie loves to see the snow leopards. 

Cute Isaac and his friends at a baptism for his buddy Ollie. These are a wild group of boys! 

One last swimming day with cousins!  We all LOVE to spend the afternoon at the pool.
Yay for days that are warm enough to swim- I wish these would last until November!
