Last of the Summer

These pictures are backwards in order, but I will explain them all.

This is Garrett's classroom on his first day of school.

Garrett and Quaid ran into each other on the first day and I was able to snap a shot.

Garrett loves school already. His teachers names are Mrs. Debbie and Mrs. Kim. They said he is really good and very quiet going to each center. I said "don't worry he will warm up and show you a different side soon enough".

This is Garrett, Ruth and Jack sliding down a big slide and the county fair in CT.

I love the face I captured on these boys. I am so glad that they have each other to grow up with. Even if they only see each other every couple of months.

The prize winning pumpkins. They were HUGE!

Here we are at the National Zoo in DC. Dad said "Garrett stick your head in that dinosaur" and Garrett did. He has no fear.

Nate snapped this picture.

The tiger went for a little swim while we were there.

Quaid stayed the night one night when his mom and dad went to the hospital to have baby brother. The boys wore those capes all night. Super cute!

Okay this will be a lasting memory for me. Garrett decided he wanted to pull Abbey in her car and made a pull system (by himself). I let them go in the road and he pulled her up and down the street. She was having a blast.

In Texas we caught a toad and introduced it to Garrett.

At Uncle Ben and Aunt Neelys house the kids were obsessed with the dog cage.

The deer were super interested in Abbey for some reason.

OH MY! I get this face every now and then. Such a little stinker, but you can see his cute little freckle under his eye.

She just keeps getting cuter. What are we going to do when she turns 16!

Well that sums up our summer. We had family come here, we went to Texas, we went to the Zoo and to visit Aunt Rebecca in CT. Now school has started and we are setteling into a good routine for the fall. I am super excited since cool weather is moving in and it actually feels like September. Next comes Birthdays for Garrett and I and then hunting season for Nathan. Hopefully that will bring some good pictures.
