six for saturday.

1. we survived our first few weeks of school. we are starting to settle in to our school routine. the children are tired. the parents are tired. weekend was necessary. the first weeks back are so busy. back to school nights, new activities starting. it just feels like you are running from thing to thing. this week was a lot more calm.

2. miss maggie started preschool on tuesday. more on that to come. just know she loves it. she is really going to bloom this year. i can feel it.

3. tim traveled this weekend with football. and with nothing on our calendar for saturday we are doing nothing. except for looking for him on TV during the game:)

4. well i lied i will be doing a little something. early august we started some house projects. it has been a little bit like the book if you give a mouse a cookie. it all started with us wanting to make a few little changes to make our house function as best it can for a family of six. so we started working on the function by putting shiplap on some walls. lol. in our defense. we want to put up more hooks for coats and bags. i wanted to put ship lap behind the hooks. which then lead to a few walls of shiplap around the house...with plans for a few more. and now we are starting to paint. but our ceiling has never been really painted....we are pretty sure they just added paint to the texture mix before they sprayed the ceiling. so to recap we are trying to add function and we have added shiplap and are currently painting the ceilings. apparently pretty things function better. ha.

5. ellie just made breakfast for everyone. eggs in the middle cooked to everyones liking. she is quite the little breakfast chef.

6. cece started gymnastics. it literally is a dream come true for her. she absolutely loves it. it is something she was wanted to do for awhile. we just didn't know how to make it happen. an opportunity came up this fall and we jumped on it. oh she is so happy.

happy Saturday y'all!
