First day of Kindergarten and preschool!

I can't believe I have a kindergartener. I am a little behind, but Jake started kindergarten on August 15. Ben and I started on August 8th. Jake loves school, but says it is a really long day. This makes me laugh because he goes the same amount of time he did in pre-k last year. He is also a little hard to wake up in the morning, but he adjusting well. His teachers are very nice and he attends the same school as last year, so he kind of knows the ropes.

Jason and Megan's wedding

We recently attended Lee's cousin Jason's wedding. He and Megan were married outdoors in Buffalo, NY. It was a fun trip! We were even able to take a drive up to Niagara Falls. I have never been before and it was beautiful!

Ryan and Danielle's Beach wedding

A few weeks ago we headed to Destin for my cousin Ryan's wedding. It was beautiful! Florida has the most beautiful beaches and water. We had a couple of days on the beach and attended Ryan and Danielle's gorgeous wedding!

Hilton Head Island

We went to Hilton Head in July with Nana. It was very humid, but beautiful! We went to the pool, beach and even played mini golf. It was a fun time!

Cave Springs

Fourth of July weekend we went with my parents to a little town called Cave Springs. They have a Cave where the temperature inside is around 52 or so degrees. It felt great! There was also a playground, some ponds and streams. It was a cute little town and a very nice drive there.

Jake's last day of school party

Well, Jake finished pre-k and will be a kindergartener next year! Wow! I can't believe it! They had a outdoor pizza party. They played with water, hula hoops, balls, and bicycles. It was so much fun and Ben and I got to attend too!
