Career Day At School

 

The kindergarten classes have been studying community helpers this week. They completed the study by having each child dress up and write about what career they would like to pursue when they grow up. Wilson said when he grows up he would like to work for the Australia Zoo as an animal catcher/rescuer like Steve Irwin. Emma said she she grows up she would like to be a teacher or a chef. So, her outfit is a combination of the two. They were too cute all dressed up!! I couldn't resist posting a picture of them on our family blog. Enjoy!

Go Falcons

 
 
 
 
This fall Samuel is a part of the Falcon Football Team. It has been so much fun getting to see the excitement on his face after each practice and game. He is into football 110%. Since Samuel was four years old he has asked us if he could play football. At age 7 we felt he was ready to commit to something that required this much time, patience and hard work. He has done so well!! He practices hard and has improved greatly since his first week of try outs. He is now playing kicker and lineman. His team is a great group of kids and the coaches love winning but most of all want the boys to have fun! We look forward to the rest of the season. GO Falcons!!

An evening at Build a Bear

 
 
 
 
Meme took Emma to Build a Bear as part of her birthday celebration. Emma was so excited. She had the days counted down until she and Meme went on their Build a Bear date. When she arrived she chose the cutest black lab (we have a love for labs in our family so that was no surprise). After having her new Lab Puppy stuffed, sewn and washed she chose the cutest outfit for her......a UGA cheerleader outfit!! Then she went to the computer to complete her adoption of her new pet and chose a name, Molly. Emma was so proud of Molly and her evening at Build a Bear! Meme had a great time too. They were all smiles when they came home and introdced us to Emma's new friend, Molly.

Labor Day Weekend

 
 
 
 
We spent Labor Day weekend enjoying the lake. There is nothing like late summer at the lake--great weather, sunshine and fun! We spent time swimming, riding the boat, tubing and fishing. We also enjoyed a great evening with family and friends as we cheered on the Dawgs!
