BASKETBALL!!!!!!

Well, the time has FINALLY come! Xavier is old enough to play on a basketball league! We signed him up with Upward sports. This is a nationwide league that local churches run. We are so excited and of course, Beanie is too!

The first step of the process was essentially the "try out." They call it their assessment. They measure heights and sizes and then have the kids complete one on one drills to determine their skill level. X did great and he ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT. He hasn't stopped talking about it since. His practices and games start in early September and the season goes through the end of October. We are so excited for this basketball season and will keep everyone up to date with the adorableness!!








Cheering for bubby!


And the amazing videos :)

You can hear Luke cheer for Xavier in this first one. It's heart warming!!

Bible School Baby!

We are quickly realizing that Xavier attending NFC is benefiting him in a plethora of ways. We are ecstatic about the strong religious foundation he is receiving there. Here is the cutest 5 year old in the world reciting his first few bible verses of the week. There is one for each letter of the alphabet :)

A: Romans 3:23 <3


B: Acts 16:31


C: Ephesians 6:1

First Day of Kindergarten!

I can't believe I am blogging about Xavier's first day of kindergarten. I keep telling myself it doesn't really count because his REAL year of kinder is next year. I am sure next year I will use the same excuse to keep myself from being upset again :)

So, after the new shoes were purchased, uniforms monogrammed, back pack and lunchbox packed with new supplies and hair was cut, there was nothing left to do but take him :(


He does look so stinkin cute in his uniform :)






Luke tried to steal the show...
















After a photo shoot session... off we went. Dustin stayed home from work to take Luke to his orientation and Xavier and I headed off to school.

He insisted on taking a pic with the fish for daddy :)

Obligatory pic outside the classroom...


Sweet babies!


After hanging out for a bit and getting him situated...I was off and our 5 year old was so brave and excited. I am so grateful that he is so well adjusted. Even with his excitement, I shed a few tears.

Meanwhile, daddy was breaking all the rules, showing up to Annsworth in Super Hero clothes! I can't take him anywhere.

Orientation for the 2 year old class :)
Reluctant to go back to school...
Xavier's first day fell on my school's orientation so I couldn't pick him up like usual. Dustin did a great job of catching the moment though! He looks so cute running out to the car :)



He had such a great day!!!


Since school started a couple weeks ago, both boys have transitioned beautifully! We are so proud of both of them and are so grateful for each milestone they reach :)
