Another busy week

This summer has been one big whirlwind and this past week has been no exception.

Trav started his new job this week and the normal hours (9-5) have really thrown us into a mess of childcare issues. I didn't realize how spoiled the firefighter schedule had allowed us to become. The next six months of academy are going to be pretty interesting and I am sure we will all be very anxious to be back to the 24 on/48 off lifestyle of the firefighter.

This week Little Man's Grandma Block came to visit us for several days. Here are the highlights of that visit:

Little Man's first pony ride
Feeding the birds (Little Man was not quite sure what to think)
Riding the Carousel with Daddy
Reading books with Grandma Block
This is also a very sad week for our family and for our church small group because some very good friends of ours are moving away. I am so thankful that Little Man is too young to understand that his sweet friend Riley is moving away and look forward to visiting them at their new home. We were fortunate to have one last playdate with Riley before they moved and it was so fun watching the two play with each other (but nearly impossible to get them to sit still long enough for a picture).

Sunday night we had a surprise going away party for the Reeses and tried desperately to get a picture of all of the kiddos which was like trying to capture a tornado in a soda can...
So we opted for a full group shot instead (with some poorly done photoshop on my part).
