New Beginnings

Saturday we took RJ to Sioux Falls where he will be attending SD University Center. He has not yet decided what he wants to be when he grows up, so he will be taking generals for now.  It was a hot and windy day, but we got him moved in and settled. 

Cecilia began dance on Monday.  She loved it!  The little girls are the cutest ever!  I hope it is a fun year for them! 

Harvest Days

We had a great time last weekend at Harvest Days.  My friend Carrie and I ran the 5K.  It rained a bit which was very refreshing!  Ceci also ran the Munchkin Run and loved it!  I win, I win!  We also enjoyed the vendors uptown and I went to the dance with some friends.  Now, here comes the new school year!  Let the fun begin!

Run Ceci, run!!!!!

Neat Cow Video

I just had to include this video of a cow saving her calf during recent flooding in SE SD.  If you haven't seen it, take a look.  It is amazing.

A Day at the Lake and Other Tidbits!

We are trying to pack lots of fun and excitement into our last days of summer vaca!  I am back to work almost full-time.  Here are some fun pics.

All played out from a day at Grandma's house!

Corn on the cob, hooray!  I think it is the best corn I've ever had!  Ceci and Wendell worked hard to build this house.  Wendell should have been an architect!  Maybe that's what Ceci will be. 

I took a picture of the school for our school profile.  I LOVE this tree.  The school just wouldn't be the same without it!

A self-taken shot.  Gotta love those hazel eyes and random freckles.
