Goodbye Summer 2015


It came, it dragged a bit, and just like that it was over.  Mady already had her first day of school this past Thursday, and Monday Owen and I will start, and we can call summer officially over.  It was a good one.  There were no big trips, but lots of late nights, popsicles, movies, playdates, Schlitterbahn fun, and laughs.

I had a bit of a breakdown Thursday when Mady started Pre-K.  I cannot believe my little baby girl is now in Pre-K and is going to school everyday this year.  It's only the mornings, besides one day a week, but it's still everyday.  I think during one of my moments I cried "But she'll never be home on Tuesday and Thursday mornings again!"  Because Christmas break, Spring break, and summer don't count, right? Now on Monday, I start working, and Owen will go to MDO.  My sweet boy is starting school, and I know there will be tears, from both of us.  Poor Nick, having to deal with this irrational, emotional, dramatic woman!!

I am so, so excited to start teaching again though.  I had several meetings last week to gear up, and man, I can see that I'm at a different level now.  It's a lot different from where I taught before, but it will be challenging, which I am excited about.

So, because there just isn't enough time in a day, we'll cut this off and leave a few pictures from our sweet summer.

Our quick College Station getaway.  We'll be back here in less than a month to take Mady to her first game!!
Love these sweet friends!
