First Day of First Grade
Sad day for Asher and I when we realized that the school year has started for everyone else now and we are home alone. Abby started today and she was excited to put her new back pack to use. Asher had a hard time seeing everyone get on the bus and then when he realized Dad was headed back to work he really let out all his emotion and we had to go take a bike ride and get his mind off of the fun everyone else was having and that it was just the two of us for the WHOLE day. I'm looking forward to some one on one but man, I do miss Caroline, Caleb and Abby dearly. Praying for a great day at school kids!!!
Excited 1st grader

First Day
Caleb had his first day. Caroline too. Abby met her teacher today but doesn't start til Thursday. After Caleb got on the bus Asher broke out the tears and cried. When he got off the bus Asher ran to him and said, " I cried when the driver took you away." Too cute. I really missed my kids today and dread when Abby goes on Thursday, but even I have to get get use to this school thing!

a BIG family vacation!
We had a wonderful time with a BIG family vacation with my side of the family in Florida. I have 5 siblings so that made for 28 of us gathering together on the beach. We were missing three of us and really wished they could have joined us. The time was spent on the beach and in the pool. We had tons of jelly fish and our share of stings. We also had two days of only getting into the ocean to our hips due to a tropical storm that his two states away. We had amazing weather, wonderful food and a great time visiting and catching up with family. My family traveled from Chicago, Kansas City, Naples, Cincinnati and Mexcio to be there. Asher woke the next day after we had gotten home and said, "where are MY BOYS?" meanings all his boy cousins he hung out with all week. Although, my brother has the all together family pictures (that I haven't gotten yet, hint, hint) here are some smaller groups of my family.

What a sweet picture of love.
This article is about DeMarcus Ware of the Dallas Cowboys, who gets his fulfillment from something other than Football. The picture reminds me of an Ann Gedde photo. Check it out!

Move That Bus! Move That Bus! Move that bus...
This post written by guest blogger - Caroline
Home Extreme Makeover was near our area this week. We decided to at least try it and see how long everyone would last in the extreme heat of 95 degrees. :) This was the last day and we hoped we would get to see the family come home. Needless to say it was very crowded. (See below)
What was kind of fun to see the behind the scenes of how they made the show. For example when the family comes home they have to focus on getting all the shots of the family's reaction so before the limo even got there the camera crew got 5 shots of the crowd chanting "Move that bus! move that bus! move that bus!" They also got multiple shots of the bus pulling away. We also got to see Ty from a distance.
Even though it was hot, sweaty and we were in the very back of the crowd, it was kind of fun to be in the action. At one point when we were starting to get to the end of our rope, Paul (a member of the design team) got on a mega phone and told every on that the family would be home in 2 minutes. The whole place erupted. However, it wasn't until 45 minutes later that the limo pulled down the street. Due to many filed complains within the 45 minitues Mom decided that we would stay till the big Move That Bus moment.
It is supposed to air the second week of the new season. (some day in October) I doubt we'll be seen, but you should hear our voices!
