Last Days of Summer

Here are Elijah and Daddy before the bike ride

This is Faith and her new friend Kamron.

Well the last few days of summer are approaching quickly! We took the kids on a bike ride this morning. We had a great time riding together as a family again. Katy did so good on her bike for not riding in over six months! After our ride we took the kids to the pool. It was the first time for us at the neighborhood pool and we had a great time. Gunnar got a little burnt though. Elijah is a little fish, he loves the water and it is so fun to watch him swim around. Katy is having her last sleep over before school starts and Faith had hers a couple of days ago.

Getting Settled

Well we have officially moved into our new house. We are so enjoying all the room. The kids run around and play all day. Faith has made a new little friend who is the same age and they have been playing together everyday. Katy has been playing with Ariel and enjoying having her over to play at her own house. It is kinda sad the summer is almost over for them. They are just getting time to play with their friends. School starts next Monday, both girls are really looking forward to going actually. I am looking forward to the time with just me and Elijah.
I think it will take me another few weeks to get totally out of boxes. Do you really get totally out of boxes though.
Well I hear little Elijah waking up from his nap.

Tool Time

Elijah is helping daddy hammer

I love this one where his little hand is holding it.

I love this the look on his face here.

We were at Home Depot today looking at stuff for the house and they were having a kids workshop. I've seen this before but have never stopped to take the kids. We decided to let them participate today. We all had a lot of fun. The kids made little art carriers they had a blast hammering the nails in (especially Eli). They all got their own little apron and a pin to put on it at the completion of each project. We will definitely be taking the kids back!

New House

Some of ya'll have been asking for pictures of the new house. I took a few today but I could only get it from the side because there was a truck parked out front.
