Hi ho Hi ho It's off to ScHoOL we go....

Cole was very excited for his 1st day of Preschool!!
Sporting his awesome DARTH VADER backpack and lunch box to match ;)

One last hug for mama before I am forced to spend 5 WHOLE hours by-my-self...  
And he just ran in that "fish" classroom like he owned the place, I'd say he's ready for school!
Kindergarten already???? Really????
In preparation for the BIG day we read many books about the 1st day of Kindergarten. My favorite was The Kissing Hand by Audrey Penn. For those who haven't read it...Chester the raccoon is nervous about leaving his mama. So mama raccoon kisses Chester in the palm of his hand and says when you are sad and missing me put your palm to your cheek and this kiss will remind you that mama loves you! ...
...Well Miss Courtney has been begging for the Taylor Swift perfume. So I got it for her as her 1st day of kindergarten gift and when she opened it I sprayed some on her wrist and told her... 
This is YOUR kissing hand, today when you feel lonely and start missing mama smell you wrist and know that I  ♥♥♥ you.
Brother and sister love!


Welcome to Independence Elementary 

Courtney and her wonderful teacher Mrs. Trautman, we LOVE her teacher.
James thought it would be funny to take a picture of poor mama BAWLING her eyes out walking away from the classroom. He's so sensitive like that!

Family Fun Filled Labor Day!

Our Labor Day was full of tons of great family time! Aunt B and Hali came to visit for the long weekend and Aunt Shena and Uncle Ricky drove down for some good times! I SOOOOO love having a full house! Enjoy the pics...

Aunt B showered the kids with tons of back-to-school clothes! They were loving it!
Big hugs for the new kicks!

Cole and Aunt B

Aunt Hali surprised the kids, Courtney was "a little" excited.


Cole has a thing for jumping on Uncle Ricky's head...such a good sport Uncle Ricky, although you do antagonize him ;) 
We have WAYYYY to much fun with Spiderman and Darth Vader 
...and the Hulk hands.
Visit to the stockyards, riding a longhorn,  just another day in TX.
A few random pics, James and Drew being very adult like in the  back yard.
