Sarah's science project

Sarah's class assigns a different kid each Friday to present a science project, which they pick out of a book. Last Friday, Sarah and I ( her assistant ) presented her class "Rainbow in a Jar." These pictures were taken off her class website - it was fun!

Fall

It is beginning to feel more like FALL lately! Yesterday we enjoyed being outside, without sweating, and swatting bugs off of us the whole time. Sarah grabbed her chair, sunglasses, and 2 of her magazines from LAST YEAR, and relaxed - while Luke carried out a container of cars to play with.

Fun Run

Sarah's school had their yearly fundraiser yesterday morning. The students got pledges for the amount of laps they would run! It was a fun morning, with lots of music, cheering, and running.

Thanks to all who pledged money for Sarah. She ran 29 laps, which I think worked out to be 2 miles.

Popsicle party after the run...they were tired!

Luke is Three!

Luke had two parties - one in Athens and one at home. Saturday we spent with the Smith side of the family, then Sunday the Ramsey's came over. This is the first year we haven't all been together at one time, but it just seemed to work out easier this way, this year, since the Smith's were going to be in Athens on Saturday. Luke didn't mind...two parties, two cakes, two days of opening gifts, and two days full of cousin!

A couple days before his birthday, Luke got a package in the mail from Laura! Boy, was he excited. Thank you Laura:)

Cake # 1
Card from Sarah
GUM from Tyler, Lauren and Mark!!!

Luke was happy to hold Mark

Cake #2

I can't believe he is THREE! Three years ago while I was in labor, Hurricane Katrina was hitting New Orleans, levees were breaking, and every minute another nurse would walk in and update me on the devastation, gas prices and I didnt believe most of it because it didn't seem real. So, now every year, I remember all the news coverage on the day Luke was born.

Happy Birthday little guy!
