First day of school 2016!

The kiddos have been back to school for a week now and we are quickly settling into the routine of the school year.  They are both loving school and their teachers!  It has been super quiet around the homefront but the days fly by!

Here's a few pics from the first day of school!

Last weekend we spent the weekend at the pool, beach and riding our bikes along the ocean.  It's a beautiful life!

Oh summertime how I love thee.....

We've had a great summer!  It really just flew by like it always does.  We had a wonderful trip to Minnesota and we hosted my brother's family a few weeks ago.  The kids have enjoyed the extended play time with all their friends and the pool was our second home.  We had "Meet the Teacher" this morning as school starts Wednesday morning.  We are looking forward to a wonderful school year ahead!  Here are some pictures of the rest of our summer!

Painting party with our neighborhood!

Marissa FINALLY got her ears pierced!  So proud of her!  She has been wanting to do it for a long time and she finally got the nerve to do it!
