Happy birthday, Paige!

We were invited to a water party for incoming kindergartners at Watson.  It was a fun way to meet some new families and kids.

Zach got a hole in one!  

He was golfing in Grand Island with a GISH colleague.  He borrowed his friend's club on a par 3.  As the ball was in the air, his friend said, "You just got a hole in one!"  And he did!  

Happy birthday, Quinn!

golfing with Ashley

We were golfing in a couples scramble with Sloans.  This couple was near us, and I had to take this picture.  

This is a picture description of how Amy and I golfed that night :)

State Fair

We spent a day at the Nebraska State Fair.  Our kids love our time there.

First day of school

The first day of school was August 18th.  It started a big year of change for our family.  

Zach's job stayed the same.  He is teaching 8th grade math and coaching 7th grade football and high school track.

I have a new job.  I am trying out middle school for the first time.  I am teaching 6th grade math.  I am excited to focus on one subject.

Monroe is moving up to the middle school as well.  She is going to be on my team, so I will teach her math. 

Pierce and Graham are starting kindergarten.  I put them in the same class.  They are at a new elementary school for our family. They are very excited!

My parents got the boys these cute shirts.
