Carter's 1st day of school . . . last week

Carter started back to school last week. He is in the 3s this year and there are are few friends in there from his class from last year. There are girls in there this year! Last year his class consisted of 10 and all being boys! Those poor teachers! Wednesday at dinner we had this conversation . . .
Me: "Carter are you ready for school tomorrow?"
Carter: "Yes, but I don't like the girls!"
Me: "Why don't you like them?"
Carter: "Because they play with baby dolls!"

Week of playing

Last week we had many days of playing! It started on a Saturday at the park with Brandon's work. They had a family day at the park. It was hot but fun. Both kids enjoyed trying to hula hoop! Mimi teaches them how to hula hoop - she's a pro!

Then we met two neighbors at the pool for swimming. We have spent many mornings at the pool this summer! Carter has even started to swim a very small bit without the floaties!

Campbell loves to wear Carter's shoes!

Joshua and Timothy came over to play one morning too. They enjoyed playing outside and having a lemonade break! Carter and Joshua will be in the same class again this year at preschool.
Before they threw each other to the ground!
We ended the week by a visit with our cousins, Ethan and Emily.

Show us your life - Wedding reception and honeymoon

This is the last of the wedding stuff over at Kelly's Korner. Today it is wedding receptions and honeymoons. Our reception was on the main floor of the house where we got married - The Donnelly House. Food was set up inside and outside on the patio was a big tent for dancing. It was so much fun but not near long enough. The cake was yummy, the food was delicious and the wine was overflowing! Such a delightful evening! We got married on April 19, 2003 and the weather was perfect for a spring evening wedding!
We honeymooned in Ocho Rios and Negril Jamaica. We spent a few nights in Ocho Rios and then took a small hooper plane to Negril. It was the best of both worlds! We had a wonderful time relaxing as husband and wife!
