Today we stopped by the stadium to check out our seats and see where Daddy is going to be spending an awful lot of time this fall. 

ONE HUNDRED SIXTY NINE


On our way home from celebrating Dad we stopped in Lake George to visit some awesome friends. On day two it rained so we explored Fort Ticonderoga (I have no idea if I am spelling that right.. but you get the picture).

Our family released these awesome glowing balloons in honor of Dad last night.

Hiked to the top of Poke-O-Moonshine today with our family to scatter Dad's ashes.  He joins our Pop watching over this spectacular view.

Sometimes it feels like we will never be done with this move.... I can't believe we have to do this again in a year.... :(

Love this little man and his endless snacking.  Here he is enjoying snack number 47.. only 100 more to go today :/

Unpacking and organizing! Absolutely LOVING this display line we got at Ikea.  Kids have been coloring maniacs.

Look what arrived! After much panic and arguing with the moving company they are finally here. Its time to unpack and get settled!

ONE HUNDRED SIXTY ONE


While our walls are drying a trip to Ikea fit the bill for today! Kids are all shopped out and E doesnt  think we will make it home in the car with this haul. I drove behind him the whole way praying, but we made it!!! Now to spend the next month putting all of this together! 

ONE HUNDRED SIXTY


Well what are we to do while we wait for our things? Lets paint! Always wished we had done it in our old house so I let the kids pick out a paint color for their room (with guidance of course) and we got to work! Not sure the kids did much "helping"... I would call it more of a mess making, but we had fun!

Alana's first day of school! She starts a bit before Liam so he was super sad not to be going to school too, but we had fun walking Alana to school. Ps what would your first day be without a super cool ELSA backpack.. haha

Thought I might get some cute shots of the kids today.  You can see how Liam feels about me constantly pointing the camera at him :( haha ohh well.  Alana was being so sweet taking care of her Baby Georgia, just melted my heart.
