Backyardigans

My fairest little one never wants to wear a hat. This lasted a cute two minutes-

Adorable Zack-

Here is our banana spider friend who lives outside of our window. Rick and the bug guy let her stay because she eats other bugs and mosquitos. I feel less thrilled about her residence.

Tire swing fun-

Pure joy!

Happy Kids!

We were delighted to hear that Zoe has inherited her Oma's snort :)

Ready for Pre-School!

It's hard for me to believe, but the twins started their first day of pre-school today. They will be going 2 mornings a week for now, and they loved their first day! Here are a few morning pics-

First Day of School!

Here's Zander ready for a fun first day of 1st Grade*

*And we had a special visit from the Tooth Fairy last night for Zander's 2nd front tooth!

Oasis!

Back to school dinner at the Oasis-

Despite our discouragement, Zack was eagerly digging into the mild salsa until the heat caught up with him. The sad eyes were showing his dissapproval of my picture taking, not any discomfort-

We agreed with Zander that Lake Travis looked "beautiful"!

Two cute!

We enjoyed a nice, relaxed breakfast at Maudie's, though we all miss Zander. We will definitely try to post pictures of his fun adventures next week!

The Wiggles Circus Show

It was a wiggly good time! Rick and I have been fans for 5 years, so it was fun to finally see this Aussie musical group live. Meanwhile, Zander is having a blast with his grandparents, and great-grandparents, in El Paso.

Galactic Blast Off- VBS

Zander had a super fun week at Vacation Bible School with a Galactic Blast Off theme. They did a lot of fun activities while learning. Today the VBS kids sang and danced for the church, which was really cute. Here is Zander after church with his friend Cassidy and the little ones-
