Wow, this summer really did fly by! We spent lots of time at the river, pool, and finally the beach. Because we ordered our curriculum a few weeks late we put our start date off a week later than we normally would have...and those appointments that I talked about in my previous post. Here are a few pictures of our weekend before back to school:
Makena wanted her desk painted, so of course we waited until 4 days before school started to do it!
Grammy made the most delicious fried apple pies!
Grammy also fixed us breakfast for dinner one night.
Of course it was delicious! She loves our family well and we are thankful to have her and Papa actively in the lives of our children.
We also went to the river with my parents and the Simpson kiddos.
The boys could have spent many more hours building things in the sand.
We went to visit Carl's parents in Wynne and got to meet his great-nephew for the first time. He is the sweetest little baby.
Carlie and baby Mattox
Makena Faith and baby Mattox
Trey Landon and baby Mattox
He may or may not have tooted in Trey's hand!
Makena and Trey are bowling in the youth scholarship league on Saturday mornings. I am a little sad that Carlie isn't bowling but she will be a busy lady to say the least!
Makena was pleased with her first session.
Trey did great also!
Homeschool planner is ready for many plans!
Carlie Erin is a high school senior and a part-time college student this year! She is also working three days a week.
Makena Faith is a junior this year. She loves playing her instruments and all things Harry Potter.
Trey Landon is in the 7th grade now! He would be in the 8th but his birthday is late, so he is one of the tallest 7th graders I know! He is taller than I am and is catching up with Makena and Carl quickly.
Makena still loves her Razorback also!
She got it from her mama, wink wink!
I am no photographer, but I am pretty proud of this picture..and this girl!
We have had a great start to what we hope and pray, is a great year!
Much Love,
Beth
