HAPPY ALICE DAY!!!!!!!

August 22, 2008 marks the day that we first met Alice in person. What a fabulous day and 2 years it has been. Everybody that knows Alice, knows what I mean!

Alice THEN....



Alice NOW....



And we treated our Princess to a little bit of pampering....Pretty in Pink




And just what is "Happy Alice Day"...




Finally, a small trip down memory lane....

It's School Time again -- FINALLY!!!!

Even though the temps are still high, summer as we know it is finally over. We had a great one though with dancing, baseball, basketball and ice skating camps; lots of swim meets; bowling and movies; and just a good amount of TV, computer and DS time!! But this week it was back to the old routine, although we have to admit it was a fairly easy week with no homework and still lots of Olympics to watch. We wonder what mom is going to do with all her time now that we aren't around.

Archie starts 3rd grade


Sam starts 1st grade


Alice starts Preschool

Just a few pics from the week....

Friday was a fun day. Alice had a great swim lesson in the morning then Kurt took a half day and we went ice skating to get out of the heat. The kids are so psyched about the olympics. We watched most of the opening ceremonies and of course, Archie can't wait to watch the swimming and Sam wants to watch the baseball.



Alice thought skating with Daddy was the most fun -- he's much faster than Mommy...





And this is why Mommy is in charge of taking most of the pictures.....

Alice wanted to show you what she can do!

Here I am diving into the pool, floating in airplane then turning over into supergirl.



And here I am taking advantage of those super balancing genes that I got from China!!
