Labor Day '08 on the Illinois River

We spent the day on the Illinois River. Our awesome neighbors, the Morris family, went with us and we rented a pontoon boat at Starved Rock and had the most relaxing fun day.

First Day of School

Another first day! I am so lucky to have the boys at the school I work at.


This year I'm back to working as the reading specialist so I didn't have a class to be with and was able to take pictures of the boys like crazy. Jake's in 3rd now so he's moved over to the big kid playground. I can't believe he's half way done with elementary school. The thought of him going to middle school gives me heart palpitations. The boys were both excited to see their friends. Wyatt is in 2nd grade now and his whole class stayed together with their first grade teacher, Mrs. Kern. Jake also had Mrs. Kern for first grade. Jake's new teacher is also Mrs. kern's daughter. They are both wonderful.
And... just cuz it was so cute. Here's Justin and Chloe getting ready to leave that morning.

Chloe's Summer Tutus and Tap Shoes Finale

For the last class, we were able to come in and watch. It was so cute! Chloe never has trouble going to class, but she was a little uncertain once I was there. She sat in my lap for the last 5 minutes or so. I video taped it as well. Soooo cute.

Lake Beuhula

We had a wonderful 5 day vacation at Lake Beulah in Wisconsin with a couple of the neighborhood families. We spent days on a boat, the kids got to tube and ride around in a peddle boat. It was so much fun!
