meet the lobos

Meet the Lobos is kind of like a big pep rally to kick off the school year. All of the athletes, cheerleaders, band, and other extracurricular stuff are introduced to the community.

This was Braeden's first "thing" as a Lobo. 

If you are asking yourself, "What exactly is a Lobo?" Here you go.......

fourth day of school

Yep, it's the 4th day of school today and Kate stayed home sick. She came home yesterday with the "throw-ups". She is feeling much better today so to keep herself busy she got a little creative with some fancy tape.

just a few more vacation pics

We went to the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner one night. We were pleasantly surprised by how yummy the food tasted.

It rained a couple days while we were in Florida. The kids did not let it dampen our vacation. Josh and Kate went frog hunting right out in front of our condo.

And Braeden didn't let a down pour stop him from bike riding.  He was just doin' what the locals do. :)

By the end of the week we were exhausted but ready to buy a beach house and move to Seaside, Florida to become beach bums. :)

Vicksburg, Mississippi

On our way home from the beach we stopped in Vicksburg, Mississippi to see Vicksburg National Military Park.  I remember going through this park with my parents when I was a little girls. It was neat to take my own kids and show them a little bit of history.

Have I mentioned I want to move to Florida and live by the beach? The water was so beautifully clear blue and the sand was so fine like sugar. So beautiful!
