In August we said good-bye to the lazy Summer days, and hello to a new school-year.

The first day of school snuck up on us.

Thade is in a new school this year. So far the third grade is going well.

Dylan enjoyed the Summer vacation, but he was anxious for school to start.

This is his first year at kindergarten, and he loves it. He is always anxious to get to school.

Agnes was a little bummed when both of the boys headed off to school.

She is into everything these days.

She’ll be turning three next month.

She is already asking if she will go to preschool too. I’m not quite ready for that.

The kiddos became full-blown Whovians this Summer. I have no idea just how many hours we spent watching Doctor Who.

There were lots of messes and video game levels were created too. It was a fun Summer.

I got out a bit this Summer, and rediscovered my love for antique shops.

I spotted this beauty at Trader Daves.

I spent a lot of the Summer sewing too. I’ve set up a little sewing room for myself in the foyer.

We had a few late Summer flowers, but the heat was just miserable this year.

I started a new collection.

I really want to go back and visit this shop again soon.

I’m piecing together a few quilts. This little one is for Agnes. She loves pink and purple.

The puppy is getting bigger.

She has also been into everything…

The kitty turns thirteen this year… He hasn’t been as playful as he used to be…

He loves to nap on whatever project I’m working on.

We’ll see what September brings our way.
