First Day of School

The end of August always brings the start of the school year. 

Brooke is in Junior Kindergarten and is loving being in the "big kid" class with our favorite teacher, Ms. Hildebrandt

Blake is in 1st grade and gets his own desk and he was VERY excited for this


 This little guy is growing up too fast!!

August Roundup


August was a crazy busy month. We definitely got in a lot of summer fun!! 

Captain Blake and Captain Brooke (they are dressed up as "pilots")

Brooke and Mommy date to Yumz for fro-yo

Uncle Fruh let us come on his boat and hang out at his place for a fun night. 







The Tod Squad had a girls night at Brush in downtown Cary. We made wooden signs and drank and I laughed so much it hurt. I had a fantastic time. 

 

 The Malls (Louis' cousin and his family) came to IL for a quick visit. We headed out to the beach for the day and these three had a great time.

Family Picture (James, McKenna, Colleen, John, Me, Blake, Louis, Meghan, Julie, Steve, Bill, Kathy, Joni and Brooke)

Julie and her fiance Sean
 My parents, Sean and I took the kids to the zoo while Louis was golfing




Brooke has worn her hair in a ponytail every.single.day for the last year. Including at night. So when she wanted to play and do crazy hairstyles I jumped on that chance!!
