Last day of summer, first day of school.
Yesterday was the last day of summer and she ended by swimming and having a good time all weekend. But, today is the first day of school, and the first grade and I am hoping she has a good day!

And this one, is going into the 2nd grade! My how time flies.

Edited: I had to post this one from this morning. The first day picture in front of my tree **It's a tradition here.

Sand fun.
This is as close to the sand as we are going to get. No beach here this summer. But they love playing in the sand down at Lake Raystown.

Tuesday's Quote.

It's not always the things that are in front that are the nicest, often the real beauties are hidden behind and out of sight.

Interpretation.

What I say: "Lizzie, please do not get in the water." (repeated x 10).

What she says: "I am not going to get in the water."

What I do: Turn my back for 20 seconds to see where her brother went.

What she does: Gets in the water.

What I say: "LIZZIE, I told you not to get in the water!"

What she says: "I know but I wanted to and there are seashells in here."

I am glad they listen so well.

Happy Thursday!

Wordless Wednesday.

Tuesday's Quote.

"Photography is a way of feeling, of touch, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever...it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything."
