And..... They're OFF!!!! - 2016/17 school year

Just like that summer is over and a new school year is on its way. The kids were excited and a little bit nervous this morning as they made their way to their new school. This year we decided to put all the kids into Morning Star Christian School. It is preschool through 8th grade with small class sizes. It will be wonderful not having to drive in 3 different directions for schools in the future. Can't wait to see what this school year will bring. It's going to be a great year!

I managed to get a quick picture before we left the house and a couple at school. Hunter is at that middle school age so I stood back and snapped a picture and watched him walk in the doors.

Cycle Pub with Kelly's Sisters and their Husbands

First time all together since Kelly's birthday in may on the Oregon Coast.  We got a babysitter for the kids and headed out to do some cycling and pub'ing.  

First thing... to get the guys warmed up a tasting session at the Oregon Distillery.... warmed up is an understatement with some of the whiskey tastings.  One referred to as Pirates whiskey had quite the kick!

Next stop, a quick beer at Crux along with tasty taco's from El Sancho (at Crux)

Now that we were ready for some cycle pub action we met up with the ladies to begin the cycle pub! Thanks to Erin for some great shots from the cycle pub.
