August 2012- back to life, back to reality

August came and went so very quickly.

Brian and Alexandra started school the 2nd week of August. Brian is now in the 3 year old room, Mrs. Tonya at the First Learning Center. Alexandra is in Mrs. Leslie Hall's class at Hardin Park Elementary.

I returned to work the 3rd week of August (the beauty of being a part time advisor is July off).

Adam returned officially on August 22nd- but let's be real- Adam never really stops working.

Alexandra bridged from Daisies to Brownie (Girl Scout terms). It was a great day. After the Bridging Ceremony, we invited the troop to our house for a party. The ceremony was fabulous!

 









The party afterward was "dirty".  We let the kids play in the hot tub then go down the "water" slide into a puddle of mud and then back into the hot tub.

At the end of August, our family participated in a "Trout Derby" at Grandfather Trout Farm. I'm not exactly sure what a "Trout Derby" is suppose to be.  For us it was: catch a fish, name it "Bob," bring Bob home and eat it.  Yes Bob was delicious.
