Summer's Over...

So our Summer was Crazy Fast and Furious this year! Kiley has now started 1st grade and Brendan is doing the Pre-K this year. It's only 2 1/2 hours a day, but he is SO shy it truly helps him a lot! Anyway, we survived Korry's first "Summer Surge", which is 10 weeks of classes he teaches where he has insane hours, like 4am-8pm...so I am glad that's over and we're back to the 5 week classes and then we get a breather. So maybe it was a good thing to get that right from the get go...Now I am thankful for 5 week classes, lol!
THings have progressed here! I am going back to school starting the middle of September. I am SO excited and SO Nervous! I am going to do something I LOVE, but I'm overwhelmed, so we shall see how it plays out. I am doing a 1 year program in photography which will get me certified to be a Professional Photographer! I have been wanting to do something like this for so long, and now I am doing it, just jumping in. I would love to capture people's memories they will have forever and make Beautiful pictures, but my true goal is do do mission work and take pictures there and spread awareness, but obviously that is WAY down the line! :o)
Our DIsney World trip is FINALLY approaching us! We planned this trip it seems like years ago, real life months ago, but it's FINALLY in the near future! As soon as this class is over for Korry we are going for a WEEK to Disney World for our FIRST Official FAMILY VACATION!!! We have never gone anywhere just us and it's finally happening! SO I am thrilled and excited and the kids are insanely excited! Already asking...how many days, lol.
Kiley will be SEVEN on Saturday! Can you believe that!? I can not! It seems like yesterday she was learning how to walk and talk and now she has grown up on us! She is having a pool party and has invited her class and kids from church, so we will have PLENTY of kids there, lol! But that is what has been our main focus this week, is when is my Birthday, who has RSVP'd...etc...etc...etc. She is too funny!
Since Fall is supposedly in the air (still in the high 90's most days here) we're starting to look into sports and activities for the kiddo's. Brendan has been BEGGING us to let him play Basketball, so we're looking into that, but I don't think he is old enough yet. And Kiley is on a waiting list along with Brendan to do Gymnastics. SO hopefully we will be able to start that when we get back from Disney World. She also wanted to start playing golf, but she has to be 8 to start that, so next year.
Well we have had a Crazy few months, but things aren't slowing down anytime soon, so...anyway, I hope everyone is enjoying the start to a new school year. And come and visit when you can and we will go down to Destin, FL and stay on the Beach!!! ;o)
