Having fun as our summer break ends!

DaddyBob sharing his icecream--whether he wanted to or not!
Ethan loves play golf so DaddyBob got him his own kid-sized clubs. Ethan loves them!
We took the youth to a fun park last week and Ethan got to go with us. It surprised Tracy and me when Ethan wanted to go on the go-karts (he's scared of loud noises) and then asked to go again! He also enjoyed the bumper boats and arcade games!
Katelyn's first picture! It is now proudly displayed on Nana's frig!
A new love of Ethan's--Elvis! We came back from church last night to hear that Ethan had a blast dancing to Elvis' music! What a cutie!
This week brings some big changes for us. Tomorrow I go back to school and the kids in to full-time daycare. Fortunately we have found a place that seems really great and that really focuses on teaching the kids (they even have a curriculum!). We're hoping the kids are happy there. We close on the house on Wednesday (hopefully) and plan to move in this weekend! Please pray for the transition for all of us. I'm looking forward to getting settled in to our home and new routine. More pics will be coming! : )

More pics of the house, a bubbly bath and the lake!

We ran the jets in the tub and it made amazing bubbles! I had to get in it looked so inviting!

Yes--I'd like to order 500 pounds of grapes. How am I paying for this? Just send the bill to Nana and DaddyBob!
The laminate wood floor is finally in and the kitchen countertops!

The master bath!
Ethan peeking out where the sink will be!

Today at the lake--we don't have the ocean but the lake was a lot of fun!
Playing in the sand was lots of fun!



Here's the beach area we played in!
Having fun!

More pictures of the house!

Ibelieve the countertops are coming in this week, but here is our kitchen without it. We will have a dark countertop and tile and black appliances. Where I was standing to take the picture is the diningroom and the livingroom is to the right. It's an open floor plan.
Here is the livingroom. We are tiling around the fireplace and laminate wood flooring will be in the livingroom and diningroom.
This is our back deck! It's partially covered and partially open.
This is the closet in one of the kids' rooms. The builder added lots of nice touches like pull out drawers in the bottom of the closets!
Ethan being a good big brother!
We had a 4th of July church celebration and we all played softball. Ethan had a good time as you can tell!

Smiling Faces


We were playing peekabook with her dress!

Still loves his books!
Katelyn doesn't look too thrilled, does she?

We're learning to walk!

At Henderson Falls park--this place sure brings back a lot of memories from college!


The famous Toccoa Falls!



I'm enjoying my summer with my babies and getting things ready for the house. I'm not sure what grades I will be teaching as they are still working out the details. I go back on July 31st. As of yet, we have not found the wonderful place for my babies that I'm hoping for so please be praying!
