The summer passed way to quickly. I know I didn't get to do all I wanted to do. Things got in the way. We woke up one day and it was time for school to start! Way too soon for all of us! The Cowarts spent the first part of the summer playing baseball. They got in several beach trips and did some rodeos. Graham will be a sophomore, Ben in the eighth grade and Sam is the only one left at the elementary.
The "Smitherrings" spent their time in the road (as usual) ! Beach, fishing, various trips and probably some ball playing. I can't believe that Emily will be a senior, Abbey a junior and Shelby in the eighth grade. Bryden is in the seventh and Hayden is in the sixth. I think I have that right. They are growing up right in front of us!! I didn't get a picture of Bryden and Hayden on their first day but Jody had a good picture of them fishing with him which is something they both love to do. Left to right: Emily, Shelby, Abbey
Hayden and Bryden
Jennifer worked on her room from her computer all summer. She would post things for me to see and they were wonderful. I volunteered to make a bulletin board (you know I love that crafty stuff!).
It seems I started a tradition and didn't really realize it. For several years I sent her a plant for her room. One year I forgot-maybe the year I was sick. Anyway, later in the year she mentioned that she didn't get a plant. I don't think I've forgotten since. My prayer for all of them is that they will have a wonderful school year; that they will learn as much as possible; be safe in their travels to and from school and be happy.
