Back to School Night 2015

Hard to believe it is already time for Back to School Night again but that it is!

Our 4th LCS Back to School Night ~ WOW!!!

The kiddos were super excited to see friends and "meet" their teachers.

Well, Lukey was simply excited for the ice cream that came at the end of the evening :-)

 Playing on the Playground before the festivities began was fun for all.

Eli was particularly excited for his very 1st LCS Back to School Night and seeing his classroom.

Hanging out with Miss Huber {aka Miss Kaitlyn} was exciting for all of us!

Eli was so precious sitting at his chair and listening so intently.

How is it possible that my sweet little man is starting Kindergarten?!?!?!?!

Alli's biggest excitement of meeting her teacher was getting to pick her own desk.

She made sure to sit next to two good buddies and is hoping that she gets to stay there.

3rd Grade seems so much older to me ~ how did she grow up so quickly????

Aaahhhh!  Time is passing so fast, wish I could slow it down just a bit ;-)

Praying for a wonderful 2015-2016 school year for the little fish.

I must admit though that I did tear up a bit knowing we will only be at LCS for 2 months this year.

Bowling with Mr. J

We finally got to enjoy our auction item . . . Bowling with Mr. J

only THE COOLEST Vice Principal/Counselor EVER!!!

Missed having G with us but loved bringing Alli's BFF Emilie with us.

The excited began by getting to ride in Mr. J's car ~ kiddos thought this was so fun :-)

It was off to Subway for lunch, where kiddos got chips AND cookies with their sandwiches.

Yep, Mr. J is much cooler than Mommy!

Then it was off to Bass Pro Shops for a fun afternoon of bowling.

Such a cool bowling alley!  Seriously, fish themed bowling for the G FISHer Fam ~ PERFECT!

Funniest thing was somehow Mr. J and I also had bumpers and the kiddos did better :-)

Alli decided bowling like Mommy {i.e. through the legs} was more fun.

Such a fun day!!!

A perfect way to begin our "See you later" to Lighthouse.

Man it's going to be hard to leave this amazing school.

Thank you Mr. J for a perfect afternoon!!!

Wichita Move Part 2 - G Makes the Move

Very early this morning {2:15am} I said "see you later" to the love of my life.

Thankfully, G's brother was kind enough to drive him to the airport.

As G embarks on this adventure, the kiddos and I are anxiously awaiting his Labor Day visit :-)

Wichita Move Part 1 - Goodbye Honda!

So this move is really happening!!!

Yesterday was G's last day working in Renton, at least as the Operations Manager.

{Who knows if God will lead us back to the site some day!}

And today, the movers came and picked up G's car to take it to Wichita . . . 

Eli loved watching them drive Daddy's car onto the truck and waved "bye bye."

Definitely starting to feel real now!!!

On the positive side, way more room in the garage now ;-)

Now we just have to soak in as much G/Daddy time as we can 

until Monday morning when he follows his car . . .
