Back to School

It was back-to-school day here today!
Hard to believe, but when we stepped outside this morning,
it definitely felt like fall!

 

Ryan thought he wanted to be on the picture too,
but he was not impressed by the chilly weather. ; )

Kara’s ready for 1st grade! : )

 

(The other kids were ready too…
but they were more interested in catching up with their friends
than having their pictures taken. ; )

Look Who’s 12!

We celebrated Jenna’s 12th birthday last week…

She wanted to bake & decorate her own birthday cake, and it turned out great!
Cousin Kate liked it, too. Winking smile

Jenna likes all sorts of crafts, and has been very busy making survival bracelets
and cards with spirograph designs on them!

She also enjoys playing the piano and violin, writing letters, and reading. She’s becoming a beautiful young lady, inside and out, and we are blessed to be her parents.
Love you lots, Jenna Grace! Smile
