Farewell Summer, Hello Fall

I think of the last day of summer as the day before preschool starts.  That was Labor Day this year.  Luke took Adeline dove hunting.  I had assured him that it would be a painful day, she would cry a lot, ask about the birds Mommy and Daddy, cry some more, beg to come home, and then cry some more.  Well, I was wrong.  Very wrong.  It would appear she is very comfortable in the field.
Yes, that's a dead dove.


Her partner and role model.


Our cute neighbor showing Adeline the ropes.  Yup, that's the doves head in her hand.


If I was a betting woman I would have lost a bunch of money that day.  I think she is turning into a tomboy.
On the same day we had one last hurrah at the pool.  I have avoided the icee machine all summer.  Thankfully the girls have never even asked for the icees.  But the last day of summer found me a little weak.  You see the outcome...



Next day was the start of preschool.  Adeline in the transitional Kindergarten and Lillian in the Twos.  Soooo hard to believe.


I asked them to hold up the number of fingers for each year...Lillian was confused by the question. 


We are looking forward to a great year!
