Happy Fall Ya'll

Fall has been a busy time for us as usual!!  We are on the go with both girls in gymnastics, Kenna's reading class, and school.   We visited the Oil Ranch in Hockley a few weeks ago with Kenna's best friend Holland.

And here is the most recent addition to our family.  Two Beta fish named Diamond and Dazzle.  We purchased these about a month ago, and I am happy to report we haven't had to flush one yet.

 

School Days

 So, I am just a little behind posting meet the teacher and first day of school pictures.  (sorry Grannny...I know I promised these 2 weeks ago!)  

 

Bella's first day of school.  She has an awesome teacher, and lots of sweet friends in her class.  She is having a great year!

Happy 7th Birthday Bella!

We officially have a seven year old in the house.  She had such a great birthday.  So many cards and gifts...thank you to everyone!  She loves to write, so you can each look forward to a hand written thank you note to appear in your mailbox soon.  Kenna has had quite enough of Bella's birthday which has now been going on for almost 7 days.  She reminds us everyday that her birthday is next. 

Bella had a skating party last Saturday, and a few small celebrations in between.  Here are all the pictures, in no particular order. 

Where The Wildflowers Grow......

We had a great mother's day!  We love our moms and granny!!  Happy Birthday to my mom today!

Live Show





This weekend we had a great time taking the kids to watch two children's plays, 101 Dalmations and The Aristocats.   Thanks to one of Paul's customers whose daughter was in the show, we had great seats on the second row!  



Kenna and Ellie hanging out.

School Board Meeting

Tonight was a very big night for Bella! She was one of four chosen first graders to go before the MISD school board and showcase her research work on tornadoes. She did not ever really look one bit nervous, and she did a fabulous job! We are so proud of her. You can view the video here. The video runs the entire presentation. Bella's part is in the very beginning.
