A few more school pics

Some of these are from the teachers (mostly Morgan's teacher) and some are pics I took!


Milo needs his attention when the girls get home from school!





Um, I'm not sure what is happening here, but the teacher sent this one out to the parents, so I'm guessing she approved of Morgan standing on the ledge!


Milo finally got a chance to walk with us to school!

First day of school

After a two day delay, school started!









Um, Avery being goofy! (Once I get the family pictures back from my brother, you may see this same look again - ha!)


Someone was SO sad his sisters were leaving him!











Morgan's teacher is on the left (Mrs. Lyons) and Avery's teacher is on the right (Mrs. Hodkowski).



The teachers took some pictures and sent them out to everyone!


And this is how I found Morgan about 30 minutes after she got home... crashed out watching her iPad! School is hard work! :)

Poor Milo!

Milo had some sort of allergic reaction and ended up with red, swollen eyes, paws, gums, chin, etc. We think it was to the yard company spraying something in the yard and me not waiting long enough before taking Milo outside. Who knows. But, he was in sad shape!

We took him to the vet and he got a shot and some medicine and creams to get him fixed up!



And then this is how he spent the next few days... crashed out! Poor guy! (Also, he LOVES the air mattress! When that is set up, that's where you'll find him!)

Delayed

Well, the weather had other ideas about the start of school... we got delayed two days due to the extreme heat. Most of the elementary schools don't have air conditioning, so the kids would have been miserable! Next summer, they are updating the electric and adding AC to the schools!

Countdown to school starting!

Just a few more days until school starts! The girls had supply drop off / meet your teacher at school Monday afternoon.



I hope you both have a great 5th grade year!

Chicago Fire Game

Morgan went to a Chicago Fire soccer camp this summer and they give participants a free ticket. Family members can get discounted tickets to join them at the game. The kids and one parent get to go out on the field, meet Sparky, get their face painted and get autographs signed. Morgan was super excited for all of this and for her first MLS game!
