Last day of Summer Vacation

As part of our last day of summer (and for Cathie's birthday) we had a fire in our back yard and hung out talking about our highs and lows of summer. It was a fun hearing about the kids favorite parts of summer:

Maddie - Spring Hill
Nate - Higgins Lake
Emily - Higgins Lake and Horse Camp

Nate starts sixth grade tomorrow, going to the Middle School with the 6th, 7th and 8th graders. It's a bigger school with seven classes and it starts about an hour earlier. Em and Maddie are in the same school and are both so-so about the teachers they got.

This summer seemed to go by so quickly. Cathie and I don't look old enough to have a son in junior high and daughters in fifth and second grade.
