Fallen Behind, Part 2

Are you ready? Here we go. In May, my little Jackie turned seven. Next year, he will be baptisted. I just got real old real fast.

At the end of the school year, Matthew had a party at his school. Down here in the South, we start early training them for NASCAR.

As soon as school got out, Jacob and Matthew took swimming lessons. They both received certificates of completion. I thought that after swimming lesson they knew how to swim. No need for floaties. That is not the case.

At the end of the summer, we took a mini vacation with the boys to Galveston. While we were there we went to the beach, of course. We just forgot to put them in their swimming suits. If you can't tell, they are both soaking wet. They had a blast. I think Jacob found a teasure.

Since vacations are kind of expensive, the boys and I work a day on an off-shore oil rig. We managed to not blow the rig up. :)

Every good thing must come to an end. In August, the boys returned to school. Here they are on the first day of school. I think Matthew is pleading not to have to go.

Not to be left out, Madison had her picture taken too. It is best to end on a good note, and there is nothing more cute in my opinion then my little Sassy.
