We put a new Red Oak tree where our old Bradford Pear was and I can't wait to watch it grow as the girls grow.

Kate jumps, Allison dives!

Let the Countdown begin

Back to School is right around the corner and we have started our countdown. Every morning after breakfast we cut off a link/day off the chain and watch it get shorter and shorter.
Kate has a ways to go still!

We then went to the school's park to play.

and Jason's deli for lunch and a special treat.

Bunny Girls!

Beach Trip

We drove all the way to Galveston one day and went to the beach. The trip lasted all but 25 minutes. Kate hated the sand. Allison hated the waves. Well, it's a good thing we don't have any beach trips planned. Maybe one day they will enjoy the beach.

and then we drove home:

and all was well...
