Weekend in Clemson!

Earlier this month, Chris and I got to spend a few days away with some great friends in Clemson, South Carolina!  

We flew in and out of Atlanta and rented a big, white van. :) 

Other than two delicious meals in Atlanta on our travel days, and spending a little time on the Clemson campus, we spent most of our long weekend relaxing, laughing, playing games, cooking, and enjoying the scenery at this beautiful house on Lake Keowee.  

We all really liked Clemson!  Everyone was so nice and the campus was pretty!

We are so grateful to our wonderful parents for their help with the kids so we could enjoy this time away!  

Back to preschool for Rhett!

Rhett started back to preschool about a month ago.  He was anxious about being in a different class than Perry this year, but I know it will be a good year of growth for him in the Tiger class!  We had a little bit of a rough start when Rhett threw up at school on the first day.  We had some major tears at drop off for a couple of weeks, but I am happy to report that we have turned a corner!  We love his teachers, he's making some new friends and having so much fun!  Settling into our new routine has been good for all of us.  

Ready to meet his teachers!

Ms. Staci and Ms. Amanda are wonderful!  

1st day of school in the Tiger class

We are looking forward to a great year!

Thomas and Rebecca's WEDDING!

On September 1st we celebrated the wedding of Thomas and Rebecca!  Reid and Rhett were ring bearers and Georgia Kate was a flower girl along with Perry and Rebecca's niece Savannah.  It was their first time to be in a wedding (and even attend one other than Alli and John's) and I was excited that they got to experience it!  It was a beautiful, fun, and busy weekend!  

Back to School - 1st grade & 2nd grade

We have a 1st grader and a 2nd grader!  Georgia joined Reid and moved over to Wolman this year for 1st grade.  I think they are excited to be together!  After a week and a half of school, we are settling into our school year routine.  

First up was Meet the Teacher night!  

Georgia Kate has Mrs. Gonzales for 1st grade!  She was also Reid's 1st grade teacher.  I know she will learn and grow SO much this year.  

We are so happy that Aubrey and Georgia are together again this year!  They both came over from BCA and being together definitely made the transition a little easier.  

Reid has Ms. McCord for 2nd grade!  She is a brand new teacher and I love how enthusiastic and excited she is.  Ms. Hoppe is his switch teacher, but I don't have a picture with her.

The kids and I did a little brainstorming and came up with some school year goals. :)

The first day of school is here!

2nd Grade

1st Grade

We walked to school with some of our friends.  

Reid, Case, and Oscar (best buddies from 1st grade)

Reid and Case are in the same class again this year!

Georgia Kate and Maggie-Jaymes

The walking crew

She was a little bit nervous, but she did great.  I was so proud of her!

The first day of school was no big deal for this guy this year.  He's a pro now!

Rhett wasn't too sad about getting a couple of weeks to be an only child before he starts preschool! ;)

We've tried to do some fun things, like going to Typhoon Texas with Elle!

I must be doing a good job keeping him busy.  He fell asleep on our walk home from school one afternoon and slept an additional 45 minutes like this in the house! 

We are looking forward to a great year!
