Anna's first day....

She was so excited, woke up early, and was waiting for the bus 10 minutes early.

Tyler's first day

Uploading from the school, waiting for Anna to finish up her "assessment" with her teacher. Her first full day is tomorrow. Tyler was excited to head back this morning. A little quiet and nervous, but no hesitating...

Well summer vacation is officially over for the kids. Tyler starts 2nd grade tomorrow, and Anna's first day of Kindergarten is on Thursday. They are both excited. The summer sure flew by! It was pretty low key and laid back. No big trips. I didn't update here much, but I have been snapping a few pictures here and there. To see what's been keeping us busy on the weekends the past month or so, see below:
Hope everybody is well and having a great summer!

Tyler wanted to build a shelf (I have a small one in the basement with some old momentos on it, and he wanted one for his room). As you will see, he's still very much a Green Bay Packers fan:

This was a bike-ride in Stowe a few weeks ago. We spent a lot of time on bikes this summer. Anna keeps up with the rest of us pretty good. The longest ride was just over 8 miles:

..and finally, today, the last day of vacation, Tyler wanted to go fishing. We geared up and hit Lake Iroquios in Williston, and landed 12 fish in about 2 hours. Both kids loved it.... I baited hooks and took fish off.... It was "okay" :-)
