90’s ESL!

We were asked to do a 90’s JCPenney inspired photo shoot with our team at school. I guess for some group bonding. So here are our results. Haha!





I asked chat gpt to make our background better, and it totally changed our faces! So funny!
Jess and I were cracking up all morning over these pictures!

Back to School!

We’re all at school together this year!
So exciting!!!

Benjamin is going to pre-k! His classroom is a wonderland of fun! I think he’s going to love it!
5th grade for Anna Kate! I thought Lydia was SO old when she was in 5th. Now it doesn’t seem so bad. 
Now, 8th grade. That’s OLD! I get sad already thinking about her leaving us for the high school. Ahhhh! Here’s to hoping this year goes by nice and slooooow.
Sweatbees for life! My kids aren’t fans of that saying.  Wings up! Haha!

Band & Choir Concert!

Lydia performed in a quartet with her own microphone and a solo! She sang Circle of Life and Seize the Day! So proud of her boldness!

All the cousins came to hear the big event!
These two played beautifully together! Can you believe they’re only 20 months apart?


Lydia’s friend Harmony is a sweetie! She kept texting me updates while they were on their Dollywood field trip to calm my nerves. Haha 
The band sounded great! So proud!
They went to a competition on Saturday and then celebrated at Dollywood!
