Exhaustion...

Ben and Conner have been having a great first week of school! They are already exhausted! They have a long day since high school doesn't get out until 4:00! They have done a great job of walking to and from school. Nick and I are just so proud of how they have handled all of the big changes!

 

First Day!

First Day of 9th Grade!!! We had a great first day of high school! The boys did so good at school finding their way around! They came very excited! It is so hard to believe that our two little boys are in high school now!

 

Great Grandma...

Unfortunately, our beloved Grandma Hasty passed away this week and today we attended her funeral. It was a very hard day, but my siblings and I spent the night reminiscing and celebrating the wonderful life she had and the impact that she made on all of us. The kids enjoyed a sleepover in the basement!

 

Practice Makes Perfect...

We did another schedule practice today at the high school! Here they are in the commons area where they will enter school everyday!

 

Boys Play Day...

Nick took the boys out fishing today while I had to head back to work!

 

Ben's Turn...

Ben decided he was ready to shave for the first time today!

 

One More Time...

We ventured back to Lake Delhi this morning for one more trip up and down the lake! The boys greatly enjoyed driving the boat fast!

 

Luck...

We went back to Palo today! Nick was the only one who had some luck today!

 

Practice...

The boys and I met their high school counselor today and walked through their schedules! They were able to find all of their classes, so it was a successful trip!

 

Great Visit!

My sister and nieces joined us for a visit to Great Grandma today and then we all enjoyed the night at our house! We had a wonderful visit and greatly enjoyed our time with Great Grandma. When we got home, the kids all voted to go out for fries and ice cream for dinner!

 

Fishing with Papa!

The boys got to go fishing with Papa today!

 

More Sunshine...

We enjoyed another day out at Palo today!

 

Goofs...

Conner sent me this picture when I was in the other room... just wanted to remind me that they are still here... and goofing around!

 

First Visit...

And so it begins... our first visit to the high school! We walked around the gigantic building and tried to find a few classes!
