A visit from Dad...

Craig's dad, Bill and his wife, Peggy, came from Michigan to visit. The girls had a great time with their grandpa and grandma. We were able to do lots of fun things when Craig got off work.

The girls and grandma and grandpa...

We went to Kelsey's soccer game. This is her first season playing and she is loving it... She likes to run on the field, and then pose for pictures if she sees that mom has the camera out. (She will pose any time, any where, even if it's the middle of the game!) Go Cougars!!!

We went to the Spokane Fair with Grandpa, Grandma, Adam, Andrea & Heather. Adam and Andrea flew in to see Bill and Peggy. Heather drove up from BYU-I to spend the weekend visiting too.

We visited the Japanese Gardens at Manito Park with Grandma and Grandpa.

Kelsey & Khloe loved looking over the bridge to see the fish.

The Duncan gardens are so beautiful at Manito Park.

We went up to Greenbluff and ate pumpkin donuts at Harvest House.

The girls had so much fun playing in the "Amazing Maze".

Kimber, Kelsey, Khloe & Ethan

The girls had to get their jammies on for bedtime and Ethan was over, so he got his "nightie"on too! He fits right in with our girls!

We had such a nice visit with Craig's dad and Peggy (even though Craig had to work most of the time! ugh). We are so glad that they were able to make the visit out.

Going to Kelsey-garten and Second Grade...

The first day of school....

Excitement in the air, it's the big day for the girls and they are VERY excited!!!

When it was time for Kimber to go to Kindergarten, she thought it was called "Kimber"garten. So that is what the girls called it for awhile. Now that Kelsey is going into Kindergarten, we call it "Kelsey"garten! I can't believe my little girl is in Kindergarten, where has all the time gone!

Kelsey, the Kindergartener...
Kimber the Second Grader...
Is Kimber really old enough to go to second grade? I can't believe she's in the second grade!
Backpack in hand...

Backpack with attitude!

Kelsey made it to school!

Khloe and I followed the bus to school (a tradition we do when our kids go to Kindergarten)! So we got to meet Kelsey at school and wish her luck on her very first day of big girl school! Khloe thought she should go to school too, so she carried her backpack around the house all day. She was so upset that she couldn't stay at school, she cried the whole way to the car! (Mommy got her a yummy cookie on the way home... don't know if it makes up for not getting to go to school, but Khloe loved it!)

Upon arrival at home, Kimber and Kelsey both reported that they had a GREAT day and that they love their teachers! Whew!!!

Then we went for ice cream to celebrate!

Labor Day at Lake Sacheen...

We took the girls out to Grandma & Grandpa's lake property where they got to go on a paddle boat ride with Uncle Cody. They also got to ride the Sea Doo with mom and dad!

Mostly, they just loved playing in the sand!
