Isabelle turned 2!! We had a quiet party with cake. When Isabelle was asked, "what do you want for your birthday?" she always answered with "I eat cake". Our babysitter Kelly and my sister came to celebrate the eating of cake and the turning of 2!
To answer everyone's questions A/B and a B. Yes those are the grades Chris received in his last semester of summer courses...the courses that consumed his every waking thought for the past 8 weeks! He did it with shinning colors and we are all really proud of him. (Granted, I was a little peaved).
Now today, back to the grind. Chris started classses and Isabelle started preschool! Yep, my baby is growing up...and making us proud throughout the process! She is such a special little soul...what a blessing...even with all of her "no thank yous" and "aawe mans!"
Isabelle ready for her first day of preschool! She wanted to learn about puppies, but instead fell in love with the drum set!
Addy is being a real trooper this week, and is spending her mornings at work with me. Today was our trial run of getting everyone out of the house by 7:45am. When I explained to Addy that starting next week she will already be on the bus at this time, she answered "well...I guess I will be taking a taxi!" Oh, to be 6!
We celebrated our last free weekend at the Houghton County Fair. A couple of days of fried food, games, auto disasters, and rides! Okay, I must include: I, Kelley Martin, was chosen as a judge for the Miss Houghton Queen Pageant...no, I don't get it either! Another U.P. notch on the belt of oddities...I think that my belt is running out of room!
Isabelle loved the choo-choo, poor Addy was less than thrilled!
Well, that is the latest update. I am getting ready to head back to classes next Tuesday and work has slowed down! Thank goodness. We hope that you are all well, and enjoying the last days of summer...Love to you all!
