Back to School

Its always a bit sad to send off my kids to school. I love having them home in the summer. We have such a great time playing, swimming, crafting, and travelling. This year was especially exciting for Dev....he started kindergarten. I was trying to feel sad.. now that I was home without any kidlets, but watching Dev skipping into the school yeard just brought a huge grin to my face. How can you feel bad when he is just so darn excited. The house is definitely quieter....but I just rush around like always....just don't have my cute little friend with me. I do miss our Costco dates though. Dev and Chan said they'd be happy to go to Costco on Sat...so accomodating

Yes, I finally found a moment to get these summer pictures up. It was a great 3 week adventure. Great weather and lots of family fun in Whitefish, Flathead, and at Bear lake. The kids were so much braver this year. Everyone loved the new knee board. After watching his big cousin Josh, Dev got on it and did a 360 right away! I loved being outside....chatting, and playing in the water. We are so glad that our parents let us come visit....it is so nice to get a break from the heat, and be able to see the whole family in one trip. We really enjoyed our first time at Bear Lake. Lots of new cousins to meet and the water is the most beautiful color of blue. It was a bit different having all that wind blowing in the afternoon, but the tube and waverunners got a good workout. Dev and his cousin would just sit on the parked waverunners and pretend to drive for hours. I think one of the highlights was learing how to ride motorbikes. My kids loved the freedom. I think it just got Melissa more excited about getting her drivers liscence. Seeing Dev and Chan blasting down the dirt road was a bit scary!
