~Apple Picking~

A drive to Eckert's in Grafton : A few dollars
3 full bags of freshly picked apples by 3 cute kids: $48.00
Making your own family memories: PRICELESS!

Soccer is here!!!!!!!!!!!

 Soccer has officially begun! This is Kate who was Aidan's VBS counselor (and who went to my school last year) and also plays Soccer at Holy Spirit! The kids just love to see her at the soccer fields!

~Movies~

I took Aidan and Lily to see ParaNorman over Labor Day!

Hunting for the 1st Time!!!!

 We went home over Labor Day to see my parents. Matt and my dad were going to go Dove hunting.  They decided that this was the perfect opportunity to take Aidan hunting for the first time. He was soooo excited! They woke up at 6 am to start their day! They all had knives! The year Aidan was born my dad went out and bought him this knife. Well-he got to take it on the hunting trip just like his dad and Pa Pa! He was happy! In the 3rd picture-he has a cup of coffee just like his dad and Pa Pa too! They ALL had a great time!!!!! I think Matt and Dad were just as excited to TAKE Aidan as Aidan was excited to go!!! I know it is something that Aidan will always remember!

A Visit with Grandma Jessie!

We surprised grandma and went to visit her for her birthday! The kids were so excited and we had a great time! It was so good to see grandma and visit with her!

1st Day of School ~ August 2012

Welcome to 1st grade! Aidan did great on the first day of school! I think he was a little nervous (so was I!) It is so hard to watch you little guy go off---I was proud of him though! So far-he likes first grade! 

Lily started Pre-K this year! This was a big day in our house! She looked adorable in her uniform and sooo big! She did great on her first day too!
