End of Summer

Hi all

Another busy month has passed us by and I'm starting to dread the upcoming weeks.  I am having real difficulty with Alexis starting kindergarten!!  I know she'll be fine and by the end of September be well on her way but YIKES!!!   

Anyway, we're off to Grange Fair this week so I'll have lots of pics to post-I hope-from us camping and having fun over there.  Matthew will be turning 4 on Sunday so we'll be celebrating that and then he's off to preschool.  I start my Chemistry class tomorrow so in a few weeks all but Mike will be back in the classroom!  

I just got back from a girls trip to Washington DC.  We packed in as many museums as we could in 3 days and I think we still could've used 3 more.  We had a great time!

Happy last week of summer!! 

More summer fun

Hi all~

It is hard to believe that it is August already!  We've had a very busy summer and this last part doesn't seem to be slowing down much.  These are some pictures from our trip to TN and our camping trip to Knoebel's amusement park.  We had a blast.  We went with our camping buddies, the Moyer family and the Gordon family.  We had a great time riding the rides and camping.  It was a big week for us with Alexis in particular.  It started with her being big enough to ride the roller coaster's at the park-scared me to death!!  She loved every thrill ride we'd let her on!  Then, the next week she had "kindercamp."  Her school's kindergarten does a 3 day (1/2 days) mock run of kindergarten.  They got to meet their teachers and see the classroom and do some small activities.  She did pretty well overall, should be an interesting September.  Now we're getting ready to pack up the camper for the grange fair and to celebrate Matt's 4th birthday.  Football is right around the corner and I'm so excited.  (Mike and I are headed to Pittsburgh this week to watch a Steeler preseason game, can't wait!!  Hope all is well.
