BACK TO SCHOOL!!

Best Friends


Silly (EXCITED) Kids


Bus Stop Friends (Ivy Bye and Noah Spencer)


Tre
Tre is now 10 years old, going into 5th grade, and apparently a model. He is still sweet as can be. He is about 4 ft 6 and 80 pounds of raw muscle :) He loves "scootering" with friends, he is in love with Kaylei Lewis (but don't tell anyone), and his recent funny saying is:
Tre: I don't really want to have kids when I grow up anymore.
Staci: Oh, why?
Tre: Cause my dad told me how you make babies and its REALLY gross!
Staci: Oh! Good.

Belle
Belle is a big 1st grader this year. She is excited for full day school, 2 recesses, and school lunch. She doesn't want anyone to bother her in class so she doesn't have to get mad. She is happy her former best friend in not in her class. She is still a tom-boy. Notice the boy skater shoes above. I still make her do her hair like a girl and wear bows though. Wonder how long that will last. Belle is a great reader and loves it. She is actually reading the same books as Tre right now. Sometimes when he takes too long to read something she says: Just give it to me, I'll tell you what it says! Belle is still short for her age, but we know where she gets it from. She weighs a HEFTY 55 pounds of...yep, you guessed it...PURE MUSCLE! She is one tough cookie.

Gone Home

My sweet nephew Bridger has returned home. His 11 month battle with his health has ended. I can't start to express how I feel. Grief. Tears. Sadness. Helpless. May God be with Danny and Staci.

The hardest part was telling Tre. He took it hard.

Bridger, you will always be in our hearts. You have touched our family in so many ways. May you be happy and healthy in Heaven. Please watch over your parents.

Play Structure

The kids and I had a fun field trip day full of parks. First was the Skate Park where I was entertained by bikes, scooters, skateboarders, jumps, hills, falls and speed. Next was the Splash Park to cool down after being on the hot cement for 2 hours. There the kids ran, crawled, walked, jumped and swung their way to some fun. The best part? IT WAS FREE!!
