I wanna put on....

my, my, my squeaky shoes!  haha.  These would be the first shoes that Rylee or Reagan has had on their feet.  They are still a little big and of course do not go with their pajamas (ha) but funny to see them respond to shoes.  Reagan found out immediately that they "squeak" and Rylee, well, she's still not sure about these things!

First day of school!

Today was the first day of school for Landon and Maddie.  Landon was so excited about Kindergarten, he wasn't even finished with his breakfast before he asked when was it time to go.  Hope he stays this excited about school always! Ha!  Landon has about 20 little boys and girls in his class.  His teacher's name is Mrs. Bagley and from "word on the street" (ha) she is great!  One proud father was able to walk his son into school this morning and it works out that Grey can take him each morning on his way to work.  Maddie is heading into the three year old class once again at Eastern Shore Baptist Church.  She is happy to be going back.  Her best little friend Lola is in the other class but they will see each other throughout the day and most activities are done together with both classes so that is good.  She was a little apprehensive after me and the twins walked her in this morning but found out that one other good little friend from last year, Sam, was gonna be in her class!  Her teacher is Mrs. Jenny and she has eight in her class.  Grey and I are seeing our babies growing up too fast but are happy to see what the new school year brings!


One last vacation...

We were able to take one last beach vacation with my parents the first week in August.  The weathered cooperated wonderfully, no one got burnt (ha!) and we all had a good time.  Maddie and Landon were little fish in the water while the twins were a little apprehensive.  They eventually didn't mind the big pool however they didn't care too much for their flotation devices....both liked mom and dad's arms better!  One of my favorite things about the beach is the FOOD.  I am all about some good food and seafood at that.  Although we had some good meals at the condo we enjoyed Cotton's, the buffet at Hazel's(can I say Grey and I put them out of business with their crablegs!) and Grey and I were able to have a date night where we tried Doc's Seafood Shack.  All were very good.  Grey and I have a tradition every year where we play putt-putt golf.  Can I say PURE DOMINATION...yes by me!!!  All of us took a ride on the Ferris Wheel at the wharf...which my dad was not excited to get on...but he was talked into it and couldn't believe Rylee and Reagan were gonna ride too.  There is no trip to the beach without playing games or a go-cart ride.  Boys v. Girls (Grey & Landon and Me & Maddie)  Again, girls rule!  Fun times.
