The new Mount Si High School project finished just in time for the start of the school year. Jonathan, Avery, Layla and I went to the grand opening/ribbon cutting ceremony and got to tour the new campus. It is pretty amazing — three stories tall and built on stilts (it is on a relatively small parcel in a flood plane and will serve up to 2300 students). Hard to believe we’ll start our long journey as MSHS parents in less than two years! I’m so excited our kids get to go here!

The kids and I had some more fun playing with Snapchat filters. It amazes me how they love playing with this app so much! They crowd around my phone begging to see each filter on their face. It’s a lot of fun and a great way to bring out the ham in all of them!

This year we have a seventh grader, fourth grader, second grader, & a preschooler. Now that the kids are all older, first day of school pics are getting pretty easy, in fact, the morning was eerily smooth! Slow down, time.

We went to Nana’s after our night at Great Wolf Lodge. We had a great time visiting and playing at the house. One afternoon we went downtown and had a picnic and saw some sights.

Here’s the rest of what we were up to in August:
