End of August, End of Summer...

For fun, Colter and I babysit baby Lily every other Wednesday afternoon.  It gives us some baby time and gives Aunt Angela some baby free time.  Colter is so cute with Lily, he loves to make her smile.  One Wednesday we also watched a new friend's baby.  They had just moved in and we wanted to give her some time to get the house unpacked.  It was baby land at our house.  On the drive home with all of these babies Colter said "There are two babies and two humans in the car!" 



Colter and Will fixed the dryer.  While we were in Idaho the heating element broke.  After a lot of internet research and an order from amazon Will was able to fix it. 


Colter and Adell want to walk to school every day.  We have to leave a lot earlier if we want to walk and get to school on time.  Soooo, it doesn't happen very often. 


A bunch of police were at the elementary school one day to have recess with the big kids.  It kind of scared the crap out of me when I pulled up to the school and saw five police cars, a police SUV and a police motorcycle out front.  Thankfully, it was just for community relationships.  Colter got a sticker and to pose in front of the motorcycle.  Big day.


Our very dear friends, the Wrights, are moving to Alaska.  Lorien has been best friends with their daughters for years.  She did her homeschool year with them and we moved right down the street from them when we moved.  The news of their moving has been sad.  For the last four weeks or so every activity has been "the last before the Wrights move".  Lorien has soaked up every minute she can with them.  Her friend group is sad but they are having a lot of fun.
