Odds and Ends

I want to post, but don't really feel like typing.  So here's to a lot a pictures.  This is Kate and Connor and Chase going off the platforms at Lava on our last fun trip before school started.  Love Kate's attitude.

Kenna is so proud of these sunflowers.  She brought the starts home from Kindergarten last spring.  They are so tall.


This is for Ally.  I make this shirt after talking to your.  Kate has one with peace signs on it.  It was very fun, thanks for the idea.  Also, I cut off a pair of Kenna's jeans and made this skirt to go with.  She loves it.

Connor got his braces off the Monday before school started.  Watch out girls!  Really watch out Connor, because I think he's still to shy to go for the girls yet.  Thank goodness.

Great bunch of photos!

Holy giant sunflowers. I didn't know they got that tall, no wonder Kenna is proud.

Connor looks thrilled to have that metal off. He is a cutie and I'm SURE the girls will be after him... shy or not.

Can't believe your kids are brave enough to go off the high dives. I've always been a chicken that way. Then there's Kate hamming it up on the way down.

Cool kids.

P.S. Great sewing!

Can't believe it has been 10 years since we put the boys in Kindergarden. It is great to see your children grow up!

Hope you have a great day!

Can't believe you already started school. We are still about a week away (thank goodnes because I am not prepared). Love the high dive pictures. I took the boys to Lava once with Karen. Tucker was the only one to go off the high dives (I think--been a long time). Those sun flowers are amazing. You are obviously a much better gardener than me. I'm a notorious plant killer. Not a sewer either. Thanks for sharing.

And you say your kids don't pose-super cute pictures! Love Katie off the diving board! Love Love the t-shirt and skirt. If I send you a pair of jeans will you make one for me?) I had to get my first day of school pics after school-the girls were so excited they left with out me knowing-20 minutes early!

I LOVE that you had such lovely sunflowers! I like them but Chuck thinks they'r weeds..I'd be proud too, those are enormous!
I LOVE the first day of school photos! Those are some of my favorites from my kids growing up.
I don't love the high dive. It pretty much makes me hyperventilate just thinking about it. But it looks like that is NO problem for them :0)
Very creative outfit mom! You did a great job with it and those cute kids!
Connor, I say stick with the candy and forget the girls!

What fun you guys are having! I love that skirt and shirt. I need to make Elleree one of those. I bet Conner is loving having his braces off.
