First day of school

Wow, summer went FAST! Today was the first day of school for my babies (I can always call them that, right??). Addison is off to first grade and Carter is off to third...and in the SAME elementary school for the one single year. 

Praying they have a wonderful year!

A week at Roxbury!

For the first week of August, you know where you can find us: at Gram's cabin at Roxbury. Seth was away on a missions trip in Alaska so I had to be off work anyway to be with the kids. So, we did what we always do...we headed over to camp. Michelle and the kids were there, too, so the kids had plenty to do with all the cousins! Addison slept with me in the bed and Carter wanted a bed on the floor, so that worked out well in our tiny bedroom. 

The kids filled their days with kids church, fishing, bike riding, going to the snack shop (over and over and over), taking walks, and doing allll sorts of outdoor things. It's the best part of camp: no internet or signal and they are fully content to play outside from sunrise to dark (just like when I was a kid!). 

On one of the days, they set up this huge waterslide and the little kids get to use it. Our kids LOVED it. They also do a kids' carnival one day, which is so fun for them. I didn't grab any pictures because they are old enough to go on their own! 

We had so much fun at camp but we were so glad to see Seth when he got back from Alaska. Kids + away from home + missing the dog and husband + constantly dirty kids = nice to see your house at the end of the week. See ya next year, Roxbury!
