Will and Clara will play while the big girls are at school

Here is a prime example of one of our days.  We have been visiting Lowe's quite frequently to get the house settled.  Will thinks that the tractors belong to him and that he can sit on them all day.  Clara just tries to kick him off b/c she wants whatever one he happens to be sitting on.  When I take Will off the tractor, he screams until we leave Lowe's.  If I happen to let him down, he'll streak across the store back to the tractor area.  It's crazy annoying, but it makes them happy.  

Also I included one of Will's many battle wounds.  I can't remember what he bashed his face on this time, but the kid is always hitting his head!

Grace and Evelyn's First Day of School

First Day of New School

Grace 2nd Grade

Evelyn Kindergarten

The girl's school is amazing.  Grace and Evelyn were so excited to go be with kids after the first few weeks of August with just mom and dad to hang out with.  When we got to school they had tons of balloons at the entrance and Miley Cyrus' song Party in the USA.  It was adorable and it really helped the girls forget they were nervous.  They both went right in and sat at their desks and got settled.  I couldn't wait for the end of the day to come.  I was nervous for them.  They both had great days!

Deanna Rose Farmstead

We brought the kids to our first KC attraction.  After trying to see as much as we could while in Seattle we took a break from trying to cram things in every weekend.  This place is ADORABLE!  Lots of animals to pet and things to see and do.  A family favorite!!  I think as Will and Clara get a little older and more manageable that we'll be there a lot!!

Together again - Kiewiet's and Bradley's

Grace was so excited to hold baby Ceci!!  We are all so happy to be back together with our wonderful friends.  We are loving being able to watch Ella and Ceci grow.  After all of the love Erin and Jeff have given our kiddos, we are so so so happy to be able to share it with their girls.
