Just an update, our...

Just an update, our kickball team is now 2 and 1 after suffering our first loss on Sunday. The kids are doing great in school. Ethan(?) loves peaceful and Isabella(?) is loving going to Elementary school being in the first grade. She has even eaten hot lunch and now has asked us to drop her off to gate instead of [...] all the way into her classroom.

Duluth 2007

Here's some pics from our Duluth trip we took in August. We went to the Duluth Zoo, the water front where the big ships come in, and took a train ride.

Ethan's First Day of School

Tuesday September 11 was Ethan's first day of Preschool. He's really enjoying it and for the first time in his life the boys outnumber the girls! He's making some new friends and really is enjoying school. He doesn't go to school until noon and is usually ready a couple of hours early and keeps asking every few minutes if it's time to go to school.

Here's some pictures from his first day. If you look closely you can see his picture on the shelf behind him, the picture is how he knows where to hang up his stuff. I also included a picture of 2006's first day of school, it's amazing how he has grown!

Guess Who's Coaching Soccer

Four weeks ago we signed Izzy and Ethan up for soccer. Today we found out what team they were on and who their coaches were.

Ethan's on a 4-5 year old team, would you like to meet his coach.....
Yes that's me...not only am I going to be Ethan's coach, but this picture is also my first Walleye.



Would you like to know who's coaching Izzy's soccer team?

Yep...my kids first sporting activities and I end up coaching both of them.

The season is only 6 weeks long, but is will be a fun one!

BACK TO SCHOOL

Back To School

We started our morning off early today! Isabella started first grade at Baxter elementary. Izzy was very excited and when we dropped her off things went very well! We are so excited for her that many off the anxieties of last year have passed! Here are some pics form the morning. (we didn't let her wear the crown to school)

Busy Week

This past week has been pretty busy in the Richmond household. We were working on getting back into the school routine. Brett was busy getting things worked out in the kids area, while he was also preparing his sermon for Sunday. I think we barely made it through the week, but it was totally worth it.

Sometimes it seems like life is way too crazy. But at the end of things it's always worth all the work we put in.

This week is also going to be busy (what's new) as we have back to school for Izzy and Ethan next week, Brett has some evening things planned including a parent meeting for Izzy and Ethan's soccer sign ups. We also begin playing Kickball next Sunday, after the fall baptism and potluck. I love that we will baptize close to 30 people this summer.
