End of summer...Beginning of school

Our last vacation of the summer was back to Port Aransas, but this time with my entire family. My parents, Chera's family and us. It was a great end to a fun summer!!! We had a wonderful, relaxing time staying right on the beach and spending lots of time together. The kids just played and played...on the beach, at the pool, in the condo, wherever they could. Colten had a blast running around with Sheldon. Cambry had lots of fun with everyone, especially cousin Kalyn who was a HUGE help!!! The adults got in a few game nights (despite Ricky's pleading). It was so great to stay all together in one BIG suite and enjoy our time. The weather really was terrific, the first day it was pretty cloudy, but the next two were full of sun!!!

The week we returned was also the first week of school. Colten's doing great and really loves his class and teacher this year. He's changed so much over the summer, it seems. Somehow going from 3 to 4 has made a big difference, he just seems so much older (makes mommy a little sad)!! It's going to be a great year, though.

Hope everyone had a terrific end to the summer as well. Come on fall, we're ready for you!!!
