It really has been a great summer, I am slowly getting more excited for school, Brody is BORED when we arent doing something all the time, I get asked by both kids multiple times a day what we are doing.

My door bell rings A LOT! thanks to our new social network of 6 and under, I have tried to establish some guidelines for proper doorbell etiquett, like you only ring once, you have a mximum of 5 rings a day, no ringing before 9am or after 8pm. These are NOT being followed. Im getting just a tad grouchy about it. It makes me miss our Pocatello house with no neighbors. I sometimes go to bed and dream of living on a farm with NO doorbell.

With school approaching we have been school shopping, one day I told Brody he needed to come with me because he was big enough to pick out what he wanted. We left the store with Mario t shirts, all things Star Wars and Batman and Star Wars light up shoes. Hmm.. after that shopping trip I decided to finish up solo :)

The school open house was last night, We met Brody's teacher who is disney quality lovey and super happy- all things kindergarden. Should be good.
