1st Grade

I can't believe my little girl is starting 1st Grade! I may have had a little of a melt down about it, I'm just going to miss hanging out with her all day! I know she is going to love it though and I can't wait for what this school year hold for her!

South Fork Cabin Family Vacation

August 21-25 We spent the week up at the cabin in South Fork and it was fantastic. The river was as low as I have ever seen it, but it actually made it nice because the kids could cross it by themselves. It was just so fun to get in the river, play silly games with the family, and spend time with my kids. We were sad to see the week end.
