Kevin starts school next week! I cannot believe how quick this summer has gone by. We've had so much fun, but now it's time to scale things back - get to bed early, get up early, blah!
I think we are all set for school. Kevin's teacher's name is Miss Cuthbertson. We met her last spring, but will go to school the night before it starts for an ice cream social and to drop off all his supplies. He has a new shirt (super heros) all picked out for his first day. Yesterday he told me that he wants just Dad to take him to the bus stop, not me & Katie. I guess I will have to get the cute photo op on our front porch before Nate walks him down the street - but I'll definitely be standing in the driveway even if he tells me not to!
We stopped by the elementary school yesterday morning to drop off the last of the paperwork needed for registration and had time to play on the playground. I can't believe I caught this on video - enjoy!

Minnesota reunion
We just returned from a trip to see Nate's family in Spicer, Minnesota. We had a great time!
The kids spent time with all of Nate's cousin's kids - there were a lot of kids. Never a dull moment, but so much fun. The kids played at Aunt Linda's all day long (which made for a super easy, drama-free bed time). There was tons of time spent swimming, fishing, boating, tubing, playing in the sandbox & swimming in the hammocks. The kids also enjoy all of Linda's toys, especially her retro Star Wars toys.
This is the view from Aunt Linda's yard (George Lake)
Katie bonded with Uncle Scott while eating s'mores around the campfire on our last night. She is wearing sunglasses because she thought the fire was too bright! Silly.
Cousins! (Gracie-6, Katie-2, Ava-8, Kevin-5, Zoe-8, Isabel-2) and this is not even all the kids.
Kevin was not afraid of tubing at all! He LOVED it!
Family paddle boat ride was my favorite part :)
