New Beginnings

Anna Kate has begun first grade, Corban is now in 3 year old preschool and I have begun my 11th year in Kindergarten. Lots of new beginnings for our family and we have been super busy. We had open house at school at the end of August. Bryant was out of town for work so thankfully Mimi was here to bring AK.

AK has an awesome first grade teacher

 got a quick squeeze between chatting with kindergarten parents :)

AK's teacher gave her a paper that she was supposed to open the night before the first day of school. It had a sweet note and "jitter glitter" for her to put under her pillow to help her get a good night's rest before the first day.

Ready for the first day (our district is still in uniforms but I think she makes it look pretty cute!) 

The sweet little boy beside her she has known since she was born :)

They have been in the same classes at church  

 We got to grandma's house to pick up Corban after school and quickly realized Anna Kate and Abby wore the same dress on their first day :)

Corban getting a quick haircut before his big first day :)

Corban had a short open house one morning before his first day of school.  

SO ready to go to school!! 

Corby has gone back to staying with Mrs. Nancy and Braden on Fridays and absolutely loves it!

A few more things to catch up on.....

We went to the Watermelon festival for the Friday night activities and the parade on Saturday. It was hot! AK got pulled from the audience to help with the dog show. She loved it!

We were able to scoot to Busch Gardens one last time before the end of summer...

We celebrated Abby's birthday at the Painted Peacock....

Bryant and I were able to go to the ECU vs State game :)

We celebrated my 33rd birthday with a fun night out!

And just a few more funny memories......
