All the August/September things!

For whatever reason, my pictures keep uploading in reverse order!  So, let's rewind a bit shall we - I'm a little delayed on some fun end of summer events!  Last night, we went to our local block party.  Sam and Isaac had ice cream dinner and enjoyed some bounce house mayhem!
Noah and I have begun volunteering at a local cat shelter.  He insists we need more kittens!
Last weekend, Sam, Isaac and I went to the Fort Madison Rodeo!  It was our first time back in 3 years, so it was great to see everyone again! The kids have all grown so much!
We realized this is our 20th year of rodeo, wow!
Cotton Candy never disappoints!

Sam started up the clarinet at school.  After a squeaky first week or two, he's actually getting the hang of it!
We all started school - had to get our first day pics!  I began my 11th year in Hinsdale.
Sam started up 6th grade, and Isaac started 4th grade!

Weekend naps these first few weeks are KEY!
Our FRESHMAN in HIGH SCHOOL.  What?!

We also enjoyed some wedding prep/bachelor/bridemaids' parties for Josh and Kjersten!


Can't wait for next week, cheers!
Our summer ended with a trip to Hilton Head with some friends!  Our last day, we explored Savannah, Georgia before our flight.  They were shooting a TV series - very cool to see!
Forrest Gump park!
We saluted our giant tower of empties the last day at our VRBO!

Noah competed with Aunt Meera for biggest hair - tough call!


The pool at the house was so fun!

Sam was in seafood heaven!
Salty Dog cafe!
Gator spotting!
A return trip to the Tiki Hut where Quint and Britt met on a girls trip some 16 years ago!
Twinning on the beach!
We had quite the motley crew from ISU!
THE OCEAN!
It was an amazing trip and so fun!  So - now that we are all caught up, let's get ready for the big wedding weekend!  Cannot wait!
