Noah's New Grin

Noah lost his first tooth on Friday! He was biting into an apple and his tooth came right out. We didn't even know it was loose! Olivia immediately grabbed an apple and tried to get a tooth to come out, but didn't have any luck. :)

The tooth fairy was kind and gave Noah eight quarters, since Noah LOVES quarters. He was soooo excited and has had quite the day at church showing off his new grin. :)

First Day of School

When your kids are dressing up like this, you know it's time for school. :)

The first day of school was yesterday. They were both soooo excited to start. Noah is in first grade, and Olivia is in kindergarten.
Olivia and her special friend Bethany.

We celebrated with a special lunch at "the peanut place" - Logan's.

I'm Back!

I am still alive! I haven't been blogging for awhile since my camera was water-damaged. We just now got a new camera, and I feel like I am complete once again. :) The warranty did not cover water damage (hmmm...how did they know??) But Panasonic did graciously offer to repair the camera for about $600. Um, no thanks. Their second offer was to give us a nice discount on a new camera, so we took that offer. And now I'm back in business, re-enacting all the events of summer so I can capture them on camera. Not really.

The day our new camera came, Olivia had an inspiration. She has been wanting new sunglasses all summer, but we haven't found ones to her liking. So she decided to make her own!
