Holey Lobes, Batman!

Yesterday as an early birthday present, Avery was surprised with getting her ears pierced. She desperately wanted to after she and her friends began a club for those who "really, really want to get their ears pierced or already have them done". She was so brave. I know one picture is super blurry,but they did it so fast I couldn't get the focus on her.

Camping with the Nybergs

We went to Morro Bay a few weekends ago with Ryan and Shawna Nyberg (and Liam). We had a great time relaxing and playing. Cole learned to fly a kite, Avery made friends everywhere we went,a and Q was a great little camper. Can't wait for next year.

WARNING: July and August are missing

Somewhere WAY too early in August, the kids began school. Avery is in 4th grade with Mrs. Riding and Cole is in first with Mrs. McTaggart. So far i has been a good year, although a bit lonely for Cole and me. Almost all the other kids were split between the other two classes, so Cole is working on making new friends.I don't know any of the parents in his class, not a one!
Avery is beginning the flute and has a lot of homework. She is definitely going to have to work hard this year.
