First Day of School!

New School!


I think we were all nervous about starting a new school this year. We did some research and decided that McKinney Christian Academy was where the Lord was leading us to be. We were very impressed with the school, the teachers, and the administrators when we met them.
Although we were still living in a hotel, the show must go on! So off we went to school. Here are pictures at the hotel on the first day of school!
M is all ready to go! Doesn't he look sharp in his uniform?

G as handsome as always!



Both boys ready to go!!!

G with his homeroom teacher, Mrs. C
We are anticipating a great year and praying for friends to made quickly!






Cousins Camps

Lee Cousin's Camp
Every year we try to get together with all of the cousins. This year the Lee clan got together in early August. The kids always have a blast being together for a week. And although, it is a tiring week, we are making memories that will last a lifetime!
At Little Niagra in Sulfur, OK.

After making cookies together, the kids delivered them to a local nursing home - something mission minded they try to do every year.
We also got to have all of the families together for pictures this year. We had someone come out to the house. It was lots of fun and we were able to get so many more shots. I really think we have outgrown the studios. These are some of my favorites!

Summertime kid legs!

All of the couples - kissy face! Now we know who goes with who!

The Lee Clan

A great one of the kids!!!!


We went bowling again this year - for most of us this is a once a year activity - and boy was it obvious! We did have a good time though. This is M and his cousin A - they are only 71 hours apart in age, so it is always fun to get a picture of them together.

The adults bowling.





Stokes Cousin's Camp
The boys also have a great time with my folks at Cousin's Camp in New Braunfels. This one is NO Parents Allowed! My sister and I joined them at the end for a few days, however. Also, Meg is not old enough to join them yet and we wanted a little time for them all to be together!

Playing in the river near my folks house. Little bit was not going to have anything to do with the water - it was too cold!

It was a great and busy summer - with lots of changes for us. After Cousin's camps were over, we headed to Dallas to start getting ready for the start of school. Sure wish the house would sell.
