Here’s some current pictures. These pretty much sum up our whole Labor Day. It was the last day of vacation for the kids (and parents) so we wanted to fill it with stuff they like to do.

| Last Day of Summer Vacation! |
It’s hard to believe that summer is already over. The house is pretty vacant now, kind of like an empty nest. The kids are in school, when Becky isn’t in class she’s volunteering at the hospital, and Jere is either at work, at class, or at basketball (woohoo!). If you call and we don’t pick up… it’s because nobody is home! ;)
The first week back was long for everyone. Ashlee wanted to stay home from school on Friday because she was too tired. Speaking to other parents at school, this seemed to be a common Friday morning theme last week. Nick I think is enjoying the fact that all of his closest friends are in the same class this year (as opposed to only 1 last year). I thought this was a good thing at first when I left him the first day of school sitting at a table with all his buddies. Then I got to thinking the rest of the day and decided I’d be kind of scared to have to teach those 8 or so boys all at once! Becky is still trying desperately to get into a section of chemistry. And as for me… it seemed like there were 8 work days in this 4 day work week. When’s Thanksgiving break!
