Max's 1st love note~

I got home from work today and Max told me he had something bad happen at school today. Concerned and wondering if someone was mean to him at recess or he dropped his lunch tray, I ask him what happened? He tells me this girl in his class wrote him a note that said " I Love You !" and after he read it he tore it up! (he shows me how he wildly tore it up) Then some girls laughed at him. And he proceeds to tell me that after that other girls kept writing him notes that said "I Love You!" and EVEN a boy wrote him one. He said it was making him so mad and he was tearing them all up. I can just see it now all of them getting a kick out of Max freaking out and tearing up all of these notes. This makes me laugh because he tells me that him and his friend everyday at recess let the girls chase them. Already a ladies man.

Girls Day at the Salon!!!!

Today Kate and I went to get our hair cut at the best salon ever! Kate's hair had got very long and stringy which was driving me crazy. Robyn cut about 2 inches off her hair and it is still past her shoulders. It looks so cute and she loves it. I am starting her young at pampering herself and getting a great hair cut. There is nothing better! It was so cute she fell asleep while Rob was drying her hair, pure relaxation.

Enjoying the wash and scalp massage

Oooh those eyes are heavy

Dozed off to sleep, so cute.

She just loves Robyn!

Finished product, isn't she lovely?!

Our one and only camping trip for the year....

Max has been asking all summer to go camping and we had not made it, so it was the annual Phillips family reunion so we decided to go. It was up Hobble Creek right by the golf course. It was grassy and we had this big pavilion that was nice.We only went over night but the kids had a lot fun.

On Saturday afternoon the kids painted their very own cars for the drive in. That night they all pulled their cars up and watched the movie Cars on the big screen. They had popcorn, treats and drinks! What a cute idea! The funny thing was the kids sat in those silly cars and watched the movie!

They cooked dutch oven one night and the kids were in heaven they had ribs! There is always good food at the reunions

I took my camera and only took a few pictures. I survived the tent for a night, Kate did not want to be confined to a sleeping bag and kept us up most of the night kicking to get out of the sleeping bag. Next time she is booted off the air mattress. Max had a blast playing with all the boys and of course Kate was my social butterfly!

Happy Birthday BaBy!!

Happy 32nd to my handsome husband! I love that you are a great dad, husband and friend! One of my favorite things about you is your a kid at heart and always will be! I hope you have fun with your new toy! Love your older, wiser women...xoxxooxx

Kate's 1st day of "cooking class"

Today was Kater's first day of Toddler class or as the kids call it cooking class. Grandma Sutch took her for me because I had to work. Max went when he was her age and started calling it cooking class and it stuck. It is really fun it is once a week and it is for Kate and me. They usually always make some kind of treat or food and then do fun activities, read stories, color ect.

Today she told me she got to make a milk shake with real milk and a straw, paint a picture with cars and make a necklace with beads. I think her and grandma had a blast! Today was a big group event and Monday starts her class! What a big girl!

Her necklace/name tag

In front of the rec center the sun was in her eyes :(

Thanks for the pictures Grandma Sutch!

Max's first day of 1st grade!!!

I can't believe it Summer is already over...so that means back to school! Max started first grade on Thursday. All day long, it was weird not having him with us. Kate was very sad, she cried for about an hour after we walked him to school. His teacher is Mr. Zonts, he is new this year. He was pretty excited to go, he did not want to eat school lunch so we packed a lunch and off he went. When I picked him up he said he it was fun and he liked his teacher but I was not so convinced, I was actually a little worried, the more we talked when we got home the more he told me and he seemed better. He loved having 2 recess! Day #2 was better he got right up and was all smiles, Phew..., he ate school lunch and was happy for the weekend but can't wait to return on Monday!

After school snacks....

Kate my poser!
