Sad That Summer is Over

We had a really great summer and are having a hard time adjusting to school starting again. The most exciting thing that happened last summer is we moved into our new house. We are so excited to have the extra space and now we feel like we have finally "settled down" in Morgan Hill. Moving was a lot of work, and we are still keeping very busy getting settled in, but we are so grateful to have our new house to grow into.

Some of the other highlights of our summer were Kaya's 4th birthday...

Lots and lots of swimming...

the beach...

and Gilroy Gardens.

Finally, it was time for Brad to start 1st grade. Kaya, Ashlyn and I miss him and are always excited to pick him up at the end of the day. Luckily, Brad got a really nice teacher and his best buddy is in his class so he has a fun year ahead of him.... oh, and he has a Star Wars shirt for every day of the week.

Time to start blogging...

I've decided that we need a family blog. I am getting behind on our family journal and photo albums, so I figure this is a great way to keep up with those things and allow our family and friends to see what we're up to.
