We are still here!

I have been out of the blog world for almost a year! I was checking a friend's blog tonight and noticed that she had a link to my blog, and I realized that I have not posted in a long time. If you are reading this right now, you did not give up on me (or you have blogroll and it automatically sent you an email).

Here are a few pics from this school year. We have been incredibly blessed with the opportunity for our boys to attend Children's Discovery Center at First Baptist Irving. It is a Montessori school with a 33 year track record in Irving. This is its first year to be located at First Irving, and I am so grateful. Both of my boys, preschooler and kindergartener are less than a football field from me all day long. I can sneak a peek of them throughout the day or help in their classroom during my lunch. It has made having a Kindergartener so much easier this year. Not only that, but the boys LOVE going to school. They are sad when it is an "S" day (Saturday or Sunday) because they don't get to go to school. That is a good problem to have!

Gabe got to take his class bear, Ranger bear, home for the weekend. Peter set up the tent in our backyard for them to camp out...it lasted a few hours until a storm rolled in.

















On the weekend that Josh got to bring his class bear, Puffy, home, his school had a Fun Run. Puffy made it to the starting line and then had to take a seat so Josh could run the race. Josh did a great job and finished his mile in 8 min 42 seconds. He came in first for all of the preschool and kindergarteners in his school. We were so proud of his hard work of training and finishing the race!





























































The boys enjoyed a day at the Pumpkin Patch with their CDC friends!































































The boys dressed up for CDC's Fall Festival...my superheroes were actually in the mood to pose!
