August Happenings!

Between weddings, BACK TO SCHOOL, and our special girl's 6th birthday, August has been quite busy!

Caitlynn Reese turned 6 on August 10th, and we celebrated her birthday in royal style with a themed party at our house. Surrounded by 6 other little princesses, she had a blast!

The princess line-up... from left to right: Hazel, Ashley, Cierra, Addie, (bug), Lilly, Sydney, and the newest edition... Stella

Our "next generation" I can't believe my best girlfriends all have little girls of their own!! Caitlynn, Lilly (Sunny's daughter), Sydney (Wendy's daughter), Stella (Janell's daughter)

And, back to school!! The kids first day back was August 23rd, and we were 2 for 3 with completing their registrations to start on the first day. Unfortunately with the transfer to a new school district over the summer, only Caitlynn was actually able to attend the first full day. The boys certainly spent their fair share of time at their new school, however was spent filling out and running down paperwork for them to get their schedules. The good news is that by 3ish in the afternoon all paperwork was received and in good order to attend on day 2. For the 2010-2011 school year Caitlynn is a 1st grader at Timberlin Creek Elementary, and Kenny and Tylar are 7th & 8th graders (respectively) at Switzerland Point Middle School!

Ahhh... love is in the air! After (?? years) of dating our best friends Monica and Dave were finally married! In a beautifully intimate ceremony at a very posh hotel in downtown Orlando, Florida, Mo and Dave tied the knot on August 20th! We love our Florida family so much, and were so happy to see these guys find love with each other. Making it a family affair, I was lucky enough to stand by Monica's side as one of her bridesmaids and Caitlynn was one of her special "fairy"girls.
