summer recap

so i seem to have misplaced the gadget to upload pictures. which is a wee bit frustrating since i have some great photos to show you. one in particular of when maggie painted abraham head to toe. thats right....
head. to. toe.
besides that Picasso moment, we have had a wonderful summer. Our california trip at the beginning of the summer seems like a million months away....i wish we were there now. because let me tell you. the heat is oppressive. i mean, really. i can barely go outside. and when it feels 'cool' and 'like fall'-its actually like 80 degrees. surprisingly, we have kept busy inside doing art projects (see above painting incident) and having playdates and running around in the rain.
the past month matt has been taking a class that is kicking out butts. i say 'our' because he is gone alot. way way more than usual and works at night too. thankfully, we have one week left of this stress inducing doozy of a class. then we have a few days to enjoy the awful heat and then its time for fall semester. our last year!
maggie starts school in two weeks and i am excited for her! the school supply list was too cute. and although i am leaning more and more towards homeschooling-i am super pumped she is going to have a wonderful first "school" experience with pre-k.
we are excited about the adventures ahead and to share them with you. til then...keep cool.
