Last Week of Summer Break

Wow--we just blinked and went from the first week of summer break to the last!  :(  It has been a great break though.  I'm thankful for the fun times with the kids, with family and friends.  It seems like we've stayed really busy, so maybe back-to-school will actually be a break!?  Not really...I know there will be homework, projects, tests, lunches to pack, field trips, football and gymnastics, before and after school clubs and special class activities, etc. etc.  I think we are somewhat ready to be back in the routine though!  
So here's the last week of summer break in pictures:

We went early to watch some of R's practice.
L & A making hummingbird food
Bogart, just being cute.  :)
Back to school shoe shopping and lunch with my 6th grader!  
SIXTH GRADE.  Does not seem possible.  
13th...Back to school dinner with Alexee and a few 3rd grade gals!  So fun.  Love this picture of them laughing!  Lane took Rhett to football practice that night and then he and Crosby went to Books-A-Million and Chick-fil-A.
Sweet friends!
Friday the 14th
Meet the teacher/open house day at school
Super sweet teachers--it's going to be a great year!
(1st, 3rd, 6th)
Happy to meet up with friends in the hallway at Open House.  Seeing friends definitely helped everyone get in the back-to-school mood.
Yesterday (the very last day of break), we met up with friends at the water chute for an hour of water sliding.  The kids loved this (we'd never been before).  It seemed like a great way to close out the summer.
Very thankful we've gotten to know this sweet family.  It works out so nicely because everyone has someone their age to hang out with.  It was a fun day.
The donut shop is just down the street from the water slide, so we stopped there for an afternoon snack on our way home.
Farewell, Summer 2015!
