Library Fun

I picked up the girls from daycare today and we went to the library.  I picked up an audio book and the girls picked out a few books.  Then on the way out Hailey saw the puppets and they wanted to check it out.  Cuteness!

And by the way - yes, Kaitlyn is wearing a mask too! She got that out of a goody bag from the party we went to on Saturday.  She wore them the entire time at the library.

Another Kiddie Park Party

On Saturday, Jackson celebrated his 4th birthday at the Kiddie Park.  Jackson has an older brother, Gunner that is Kaitlyn's age, so the family was nice enough to invite Kaitlyn to come to the party too.  Gunner goes to Hardy Oak Elementry too.  The girls had a great time and it was a beautiful day.

Kaitlyn loved riding the rides.  Here she had no qualms about riding in the boat with a girl she didn't know.

And then she did this!  She was all alone on the Ferris wheel!

They both love this ride.  It goes up and down.

And here Hailey is riding the boat with her friend Olivia.

She is waving to her fans.

And they always love the Merry Go Round

A selfie with Dad.

Pigtails

So she didn't like them (I guess it was heavy heavy and felt a little weird) but doesn't she look like me?

First Day of Purple Room

When did Hailey grow up? She had her first day in the Purple room today - Pre-K! I am relieved that she is in there with a few of her buddies - like Jacie and Tatum.  She was so excited this morning.  (Hair courtesy of Eric.... But let's be real, it looks like that most days.  Hahaha)

First Day of First Grade

Kaitlyn was super excited to go back to school today.  Last week she didn't want to go to the Village because she wanted to go to school!  That is so good to hear.  

The bus came at 6:35 today!  So early!  But Kaitlyn was ready.  And good thing it came that early because it started to pour right after she got on the bus!

Hard to see because it is so dark and rainy... Oh and she was running, she was so excited!

Last Weekend of Summer Break

Rainbow closes for 2 days at the end of summer to transition to new classes for the fall, so we headed to the coast.  We waited to leave town on Thursday night after Kaitlyn's Meet the Teacher, so we got a little stir crazy at the house.  But we got a great selfie in.

The Case's came with us again.  The girls built a lot of sand castles this trip.

Aria and Kinzie definitely like being in the sand more than my kids!

The weather was great!

And this girl got brave and started to jump in by herself!  It took all summer for her to get there!

We enjoyed the singer on Friday night.  

And look at this magical moment with all the girls on the couch one morning!

Here is where I find my zen at the beach.  Perfection

I was nice enough to share my Yeti koozie with the girls.  Aren't I a great mom?

Here are all the girls headed to the pool!

And the trip was a success because the girls were tired out on the way home and Kaitlyn even slept!  I can't remember the last time she slept in the car!

Meet the Teacher

It was Meet the Teacher night on Thursday so we went and met Kaitlyn's First Grade Teacher, Mrs. York.  First grade?!?!  The teacher won me over already because she knew Kaitlyn already and greeted her by name.  I have heard great things so we are excited.  

Bowling

Last Sunday it was raining so we decided to take the girls bowling.  It had been awhile since we have bowled as a family.

Kaitlyn looked like she was doing some warmup exercise squats!

Hailey was surprisingly good and really enjoyed it.

Selfie time!

What a fun day at the bowling alley!

Fun with the Case's

We had the Case's over for dinner last Friday after we all spent some time at the pool.  

We played on the porch a bit and the temperature dropped.  This girl said she was cold and needed a jacket.  Silly girl!

  

The next night we went over to the Case's house.  The girls always love to go there and play with their friends and some different toys.
