First day of 3rd grade!!

Just like that, summer is over and we are back to the first day of school!!! It's been a while since mama has been able to see you at the first day of school.  I am so excited I could make it this year.  





It was a big bus crowd!  Your first day was great.  You really like your teacher and we just found out that you have Mrs. Fisher for reading. WHOO HOO, your all time favorite teacher ever.


This cute pic was taken by baba.  He thinks we pose exactly alike... he's kind of right! I love you so much Bradley.  You make me so happy.  You adore your brother, loves cats and dogs and have the biggest heart.  I can't wait to see what 3rd grade brings.  

Grand Canyon and Scottsdale

 Last two stops - Grand Canyon and then to the Scottdale.  


A field of yellow flowers on our drive... beautiful

First stop, Pink Jeep Tours

It's 115 degrees and your face shows it

Antelope Canyon

 No time wasted on a baba planned vacation.  Second stop of the day - Antelope Canyon.  Both you and Ben did really well with these long drives... hours and hours and hours.

Watch out for the scorpions in the dark corners.  We heard about this after the end!
