fireflies and wooden frying pans

This summer has been filled with gorgeous nights that have most recently been graced with the presence of fireflies. The magic of how they appear, just as the sweetness of summer sets in, will never be lost on me. Upon noticing them for the first time this summer, Miles and his buddy quickly grabbed glasses…

last day of kindergarten for Miles

Miles wrapped up his first year of elementary school last week and ever since we’ve been in a whirlwind of graduation parties and summer activities. My head is spinning as I try to digest this huge year (NEVER knew how life changing and all encompassing school would be!) and get into the swing of a…

    I can’t get over how big Miles has gotten this year. So many of us have said it a few times here and there, but kindergarten was most certainly the year Miles went from a little boy to a BIG boy! Goodness! (and oh my gosh, that picture of him in the grass…I just see teenage Miles all over it…and what a HANDSOME kiddo he is!)

It’s finally beautiful here in Indiana, after the most miserable tease of an early spring, but alas, I’ve been so sick with a cold and sinus infection that I haven’t been able to get out and enjoy it. I finally decided to just fill my pockets with tissues, get off the couch and get out…

    What type of dog is Bruno? I am so glad the weather is FINALLY warming up! Spring officially started at the end of March, but it hasn’t felt like spring until this past week.

    Miles and Jossy seem to be enjoying this beautiful weather!

Miles’ first school play

Miles’ kindergarten play was adorable, hilarious and so much fun to watch. Even Joss was glued to the play, even joining in on the motions and singing along. There was a bit of suspenseful silence as we waited for Miles to say his line, but he definitely said it, loud and clear. Yay! Go Miles!…

    BEYOND adorable (though, wow…a play already? He’s only been in school for like, a month!) They’re training those thespians early, huh? 🙂 Love it!

The Toadstool Tales, by Miles and Mom

This morning we woke up to the coolest looking mushrooms that bloomed outside our front door. I immediately thought about how what little imaginary creatures would live, nestled under the toadstools. Miles didn’t buy the idea that tiny gnomes might live amongst them, so I thought perhaps he could make his own story. I told… Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger...
