A Few New Things


Just checking in to share a few new things with you.  First of all School started on Wednesday.  We were a little rushed to get out the door... hence no shoes on Max and Jack.  We snapped a quick pic and took off.
Mer is in 7th grade now in Middle School.  She is in heaven that she doesn't have to wear uniforms anymore.     

 We had planned on making her a new backpack for school but hadn't had the time to actually do it.  We worked together on it all day Tuesday and thankfully it was done before dinner.  More details to come soon on BSM.  

As you know Doug has been working like a maniac lately. 

 His last deadlines were Wednesday so he decided to take Thursday and Friday off. 


With his new found free time he decided he wanted to go test drive some trucks. 


And he bought one. He has been thinking about doing this for a while and he found a good deal. An 2006 Toyota Tacoma, double cab so he can still drive all the kids around.


As you might imagine, the boys are in heaven.

Speaking of the boys... the littlest one starts preschool on Monday.  He went to meet his teacher yesterday and was very shy. I'm a little nervous about how the first day will go. Wish us luck.
