Last week of summer

This past week was our last week of summer. Preschool starts tomorrow for both Ryan & Kathleen. They are so excited! We spent the past week squeezing in a few last summer activities. We were sure busy! We went to an ice cream party with playgroup, lots of swimming, walks to the park with stops to feed the ducks, trying out our new rain coats when it rained, and one last summer play date with our friend Hayden. We had so much fun! We topped it off on Friday meeting Ryan's teacher at meet the teacher day and Kathleen's on Saturday. We are ready for fall!


Here are some fun pictures from our play date with Hayden.

Last few days of summer

School starts next week. Wow! Summer went by fast! Ryan is ready though. I think he is getting tired of lazy summer days. This past weekend we had family weekend. We swam in the pool, watched the Olympics, and went on a family walk to the park. We had a fantastic weekend!
