CC 2014: Michelle's Bridal Shower




On Saturday evening, we had an "I Do Barbecue" for Michelle at Aunt Berchie's clubhouse. We had a fun time celebrating Michelle and Joe (or "Joey Hole" as the children affectionately started calling him). The best game was suggesting (in some cases hilarious) dates for the happy couple.

Zoombezi Bay





We had hot and sunny weather to enjoy the afternoon and evening at Zoombezi Bay! Kit's favorite activity was the lazy river, and Winnie liked the wave pool best. The longer we were there, the braver the girls became. By the end, they were exploring all the Baboon Lagoon had to offer.

Kit's First Day of Kindergarten






As Seth and I walked, Kit HOPPED all the way to the school for her first day at kindergarten. She was so happy and excited to go! Parents aren't permitted to walk the kids into the building, so after a quick hug, she was through the door, and that was it!

Trip to the Zoo







Our day at the zoo started off with a downpour. Thankfully, the rain passed, and it turned out to be a beautiful day! We had a fun time with Aunt Berchie, Uncle Jim, Grace, and Gage. It was our first time seeing the "Heart of Africa," which has the look and feel of an African village.

Kindergarten Begins in 2 Days!


Kit met her kindergarten teacher, Ms. Becker, at Carlisle Elementary's Back to School Night. We toured the building, and the PTO had freezer pops for the kids.

Evening at Jeff's Place




On Sunday we headed out to Jeff's place: the Delaware Range and Field Association, which is near Ashley. We roasted hot dogs, made s'mores, and saw the full moon.
