Back to School 2017

This is the only year all three of the boys will attend the same school together. Avery is in 5th, Kieron is in 2nd, and Silas is in kindergarten. Here are their first-day photos:

This was technically Avery & Kieron’s first day of school, but not Silas’. Kindergartners start a couple days later.

Sunny August

Despite the smokey days, we did still have a few sunny, clear days, and they were glorious!

Eclipse

August 21st was the big day. We grabbed our special eclipse glasses and headed to the lake to watch the event. It was pretty cool experience, and really neat enjoying it from the middle of  the lake! Here is our posed photograph before we headed out on the water:

Meanwhile…

Smokey August

If there’s one word I can use to describe our August, it’s “smokey”. Wildfires in Eastern Washington and Canada brought us a ton of smoke and haze. Many days we had to keep our windows shut, and days at the lake often looked like this. We didn’t let it stop us from having fun though!


























Sitting on a mole hill. Happy as a clam.
