September ~ Seth Turns 7 and Labor Day Camping

Seth's 1st Day of 1st Grade

The kids are back in school again. Such a bittersweet day. Seth is now in school full time. I am sure going to miss him but at the same time it is nice to have a little bit of a routine again. His teacher is Mrs. Penrod and Seth says she is really really mean...ha ha! I will say he has been doing really good  in school so maybe a mean teacher is just what he needs ;)

 Macee's 1st Day of Preschool

Macee is in her second year of preschool at Doodlebug with Miss Sara. She is loving it and has made some great friends. She too is learning lots and well on her way to reading :)

Seth Turns "7"

This year I told Seth we weren't going to have a friend party this year. He was totally fine with that. When I asked him what he wanted to do for his Birthday he said he wanted to go to the skate park with his friend Brody and have cake and ice cream with the family. So that is what we did.

I asked him where he wanted to go for his Birthday dinner and he chose his favorite...Arby's!

Happy 7th Birthday Seth

Seth got new riding gear and helmet.

 Just a funny story about Seth and one of his presents. Seth's Aunt Becky has 3 dogs and Seth is in love with Dalilah. He really wants her to be his dog and they both just have this special bond. Becky kept joking that for his Birthday he just might get her. He took her literally so he would go around telling his friends that he was getting a dog for his birthday. He even said to one of his friends, "Do you think she will come with a bow on her head?" Oh crap! We had to make it clear that he wasn't getting Dalilah for his Birthday, but he was excited when he got a picture of her so he could see her everyday! That is my kind of dog ;) Thanks Aunt B! p.s. I have caught the picture in bed with him sleeping...ha!

Grandma Christensen even gave him his own box of his favorite pumpkin chocolate chip cookies.  He loved every one...YUM!Happy Birthday Seth! You are such a special boy and bring so much joy to your mommy and daddy's lives.

 Labor Day Camping

We went down south to Thousand Lakes to camp for Labor Day this year with Jason and Susan and her family. We had never been there before and it was beautiful. The weather was a little on the cooler side with afternoon showers but for the most part it was a beautiful weekend....I even rode a dirt bike and survived! Wish I would've got a picture...I think Tim was shocked too ;)

 Tori and Macee spent a lot of the weekend riding their little four wheelers. They were both doing so good. It was so funny to watch them. They were both in la la land! They also spent a lot of time coloring and having a good time together. They really are the best of friends.

Seth spent his time riding his bike, playing in the dirt, going on rides with dad, collecting fire wood and his favorite thing of all...tending to the fire. He had a good time hanging out with Wyatt too!

 Hadley spent her time going on four wheeler rides, playing in the dirt, lovin on the dogs and hanging out at camp with mom. She loves camping and had a good time.

Loving on Jethro

 We cant forget this funny little man, Carson. Here he is showing me some tricks! He is such a funny kid. Love him to pieces.

So that pretty much sums up our September...somewhere in there I turned the BIG 3-0! We also went to the state fair...not sure what happened to those pics.
