5th Grade Mother Son Game Night

Happy Halloween!

 This was a whole new Halloween! The boys ended up going into a different neighborhood with friends and trick-or-treating there....Scarlet stayed in our community, but then went over to her friend Enya's neighborhood, and then they both came back to ours....

Great Wolf Lodge

A last-minute vacay to end in the summer in July  - right before we went back to school.

First Day of School at LWE: 5th and 4th Grade

Scarlet Swim Season- Summer 2018

We switched teams this year, thanks to the move, and joined the Park Bridge Piranhas. Scarlet had a great season and enjoyed it so much that we've now joined a year-round league, swimming twice a week after school.

Tubing in Helen - Summer 2018

Every year, we've talked about going to Helen. But this summer, we finally did! Tubing was great. Addison fell out once, but we recovered him .... along with all of our shoes as well.

Happy 9th Birthday Scarlet!

I can't seem to find the photos from her pool party, but will add when I can. For now, happy 9th birthday!

Visiting Orlando - June 2018

Had a great visit to Orlando in June 2018 for a surprise birthday party for Grandpa, as well as a visit to SeaWorld's Aquatica.

Student-Led Conferences

Forgot to grab a pic with the boys, but we really loved the student-led conferences at school this year. The kiddos prepared their presentations, and Scarlet even stuck with a script. It was a great way for them to reflect on growth over the year- and then be able to verbalize it to us. Lots of hard work at our new school this year! 

 

Field Day at Lake Windward - 4th Grade and 3rd Grade

Our first Field Day at Lake Windward and everyone enjoyed it, despite the heat!

 

Welcome to the family, Gracie

Not sure how I overlooked this, but Scarlet picked out Gracie as her birthday gift back in July when she turned 8. It's already been 8 months since we've had her. Like Hamilton, she's also a Syrian hamster and is very friendly. She loves carrots and other veggies. She's not a fan of strawberries as much as Hamilton loves them.

Soccer Season 2018

Everyone part of the Alpharetta Ambush and are playing this season .... and in a weird turn of events, I volunteered to coach the boys team to ensure that Scarlet had a spot on the girls team. Well worth it!
