The past couple of weeks.

The MHS girls soccer team was selling family picture settings. We took advantage the last weekend in Aug and got some family pictures taken. I took this one, the rest can be found at liviadesigns.com/portfolio
Would love for you to go there and take a look at the pictures and let me know which one you like best, I need to order soon. Go to client proofs then onto MHS soccer mini sessions, Jones family. Following the pictures, we headed to Idaho for the baby blessing of cute little Brixton. My kids plan for the day was to SWIM, SWIM, SWIM. So we did just that. In the afternoon, Liz came over with her kids the they had a ball playing in the pool. It was so great to get to spend some time with the Renzello's. Later that evening we went and captured the Adams kids and then we went swimming some more. The following picture is what I found in the hotel room after everyone was dressed after swimming. These kids just pick up right where we leave off and love to hang with the Adams'.

Since school started here in August and Preschool didn't start until after Labor Day, Derringer has been ready to go to school forever. This picture was taken at 8:15 on the first day of preschool. Unfortunately, he doesn't go until the the afternoons at 12:30. He was dressed and ready with the girls but had to wait until after lunch. He wouldn't take his backpack off though and wore it until we got to preschool and I made him hang it up.

Outside with the girls waiting for their carpool to come.

He loved preschool but cracks me up daily when he tells me about it. Best part is the fact there is a little girl in his class named Chloe. ( There is a little girl in the ward with the same name who Derringer has liked since we moved here but the one in the preschool is a different one.)

First day of school, "How was school today?" His answer, "Great!" I ask "Do you like the kids in your class?" His response, "Everyone but the Fake Chloe."

Poor girl will probably get called the Fake Chloe all year. Don't know anything about her but hope he warms up to her so she doesn't have to be the Fake Chloe.

One last picture. Here are the two little ones outside helping Jeramy. I don't think I ever let the older girls just play in the dirt like this but Wynter just needs more outdoor time and I don't let her get it. Between the allergens in the air and the grasses that make me itch so bad I don't go out with her enough. Saturday she got some time outside with the boys and this is what I found. Needless to say she got a bath soon after this was taken. She was having fun though.
