Well, we are getting back into the groove of school and schedules. Lily is adjusting well to 1st grade. She seems very happy with her new teacher and loves the new school building. We are waiting to find out when her cheerleading practice will start. I switched from cheering at the Y to cheering with her school (new for 1st grade this year). She is excited.

This past weekend was a great time for our little family of four. We hit the Greensboro Grasshoppers baseball game on Friday night and ate all of the stadium food...pretzels, peanuts, cotton candy, chips, pizza, and hotdogs!!! After the game, we even made it to Carvel for a yummy ice cream treat! Good times. Saturday night, we went to the new Nissan dealership for a beach party. They even trucked in some sand for the event and Chairmen of the Board played. Lots of fun for the adults and the kids.

Yesterday, John finished up some yardwork and then took down the rickety swingset in our backyard. I was happy to see it go and thankful that John was able to do it. The girls never played on it much due to the lack of shade. So, I plan to take the girls to the park as a reward for letting the swingset go without any issues.

I'll finish with a digiscrap of Lily and her friend, Olivia, from the weekend. And, slowly but surely...I'm moving out of the funky fog I was in all of last week. Happy days!
