First day of Pre School

Well today was the day that we sent our babies to Pre school. I know they aren't babies, they are 3 1/2 years old but it was kind of a hard day, thinking that they are old enough to go to school. Anyways, they both popped out of bed this morning when I woke them up. They were very excited to go to school. They went to daycare this morning just so they could get an idea for how their school days would go. Kelly & picked them up at noon and took them to school.

They wanted to be the ones to hang their coats & back packs up on the hooks! They found their name tags & were off to play. Kelly and stood outside the door and watched threw the crack in the door to make sure they were ok! They were fine, us on the other hand, we didn't cry but well any of you parents who took your babies/baby to their first day of school will understand!

We picked them back up and they were so excited! They had a great time at school. They learned some new songs & Mikkail said she told her teacher she was going to come back next week!

Before they left this morning we had to get the first day of school snaps so here are Zachary & Mikkail on their first day of school!

I’ve been tagged!

And you thought grown ups didn’t play tag?!!

I have been tagged by my good friend Louisa Larson (thanks Louisa). The rules are as follows:

RULES:

1. Link the person who tagged you

2. Mention the rules on your blog

3. Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours

4. Tag 6 following bloggers by linking them & leave a comment on each of the tagged blogger’s blogs letting them know they have been tagged.

Wow is it a little early to be telling secrets about myself but here goes!!!!

  1. I’m Canadian (not quirky at all)
  2. I had to get my license 3 times! I got it when I was 15 1/2, then when I moved from MB to NV I had to do the written & driving parts again because I was coming from a different country. And then when I moved from NV to ND I had to do the written part again because of the different state laws!!!
  3. I hate folding socks!
  4. I keep a stash of candy in my desk at work for those times when I need a sugar fix!
  5. I can touch my nose with my tongue (some might see this as gross rather than quirky but my kids find it entertaining)
  6. I love listening to Conway Twitty & Loretta Lynn!! Their music brings back great childhood memories of driving with my family on a family vacation!

OK. Now to tag some fellow bloggers.

Stuart & Kiernan

I have the honor of photographing Stu & Kiernan's wedding in December so we went out tonight for their engagement session. Even though it was still 90 degree at 7pm, we ventured out to some of my favorite spots in town.

I just took a quick look and here are some of my favorites so far.

Thanks for the fun session guys, I can't wait for your wedding!

Braleigh

I had a session today with 5 week old Braleigh! Now our session got off on a little rocky start, not because of Braleigh but I got lost trying to get to her! I think her daddy thought I was crazy because apparently no one had ever gotten lost going to their house before!!!

Anyways, Braleigh is such a little cutie. I had to take a look when I got home and get some of her up here for mom & dad & for all you blog followers!
