Summer & School

It has been a busy summer and we are really excited that school has started!  This is just a very edited version of our summer.
We got to go on a train ride at the zoo, courtesy of Grandpa & Grandma.


We had a birthday for Z-Man.  He got enough money to buy his very own drone.  It was good practice to count out the correct amount of money.

The kids wanted to donate some money to the Children's Miracle Network.

Flying the drone in their p.j.'s


We went to the fair and they got to ride on some nausea inducing rides.  Parents must give an arm & a leg in order for their children to voluntarily get sick.

Grandpa & Uncle giving them some sympathy and helping with their summer school worksheets.  Psst... Z-Man & Curly are wrapped around their fingers.

Lots of hay bale hopping

We got to be the first ones through the door at the Grand Opening for the new Hobby Lobby.  My husband fears he is going to have to start eating pb&j now because that's all he's going to be able to afford.

Leaving  for their first day of school

One is super excited about school, one is not.

And this one is over the moon excited!!

We had another birthday for Curly.  She wanted Frozen theme.



We went to a real PRCA Rodeo.  They really enjoyed it.  Z-Man liked the bucking broncos and Curly liked the clowns the best.


I just finished a few custom orders for customers.

Things continue to progress (ever so slowly!) and we are hoping by the end of the school year to have everything done and finalized for adoption.  We are looking forward to a trip to Iowa and having family coming to visit us soon!  We are excited for another school year around here! (Well... everything except math, according to Z-Man.)
