First Day of School!!!

Somehow, we are the parents of a 5th grader and a 1st grader! I can't believe that both kiddos are in school full-time now, definitely NOT ready for this. :-)



While both kids were not ready for summer vacation to end (or us for that matter), we secretly think they were excited to see their friends and get back to school again.

We know you guys will have a great day today!!!

Luv, Mom & Dad

Delaney got glasses!

We decided to have a little photo shoot at Aunt Danah's house to show off Delaney's new glasses. She looks great in them!



She is near-sighted, so the clarity of the farther away things now with glasses is pretty amazing to her. :-) (Kenny, I think you can't put off the mowing any longer -- oops, sorry, wrong house.)




I can't believe that my daughter is this old. She even looks older than 10 in her glasses, I think.



Thankfully, she was a good sport during this entire process.




Everyone says that she looks even more like me in her glasses, I will definitely take that as a compliment!



I like this:

We never dreamed you'd be so beautiful...
In all of the times we tried to imagine
every last detail of who you would be,
thru all of the nights we spent quietly thinking
of how we would feel when we first looked at you,
we patiently waited and silently wondered.
We hoped and we prayed and we tried to imagine...
but we never dreamed you'd be so beautiful.


WE LOVE YOU, DEE-DEE!
