first day of kindergarten!

Thursday, September 6th, 2012

This is their morning routine. They do this EVERY morning before getting inside the car. Shane runs up the block and runs down with arms open in to Chloe’s arms.

Chloe’s starting a new school today!

We decided that Shane will continue going to the Korean church preschool where they were for summer camp. I feel bad that Shane’s missing his friends back at his old Christian school but it’s so much easier for me to give them rides this way, now that they are going to two different schools. At least their schools will both be in the same town and are close to each other.

First time experiencing a large public school classroom.

She was so shy and she silently cried a little bit. She eventually let go of me and sat down. Have a wonderful day my princess…

last bbq of the summer

Sunday, September 2nd, 2012

Desserts by guests:

Salted caramel cupcakes : Seriously good.

This was the biggest bbq we had this summer. We had nine kids total! All running in circles at one point.
I’m so thankful for my friends at GRC and friendships we are building. I look forward to many more get together like this in the future!

Our schedule this weekend was completely full. I made plans with my NY friends so we can hang out and enjoy the last weekend of summer together.

I learned his new nickname: pork chop. Awwww…

last dip in the water

This will be the last time we’ll be in the beach this summer so before we return home, I couldn’t resist to jump in again with the kids.

I was digging for clams under the sand and I found this one.  Surprise, there was a little crab friend inside.

Last minute coloring before the long car ride home. Goodbye Summer! We’ll see you next year.

Breakfast on the picnic table.

Runaway children

Chloe said it was just a morning walk.

Drive to Orient State Park where we visited about 4 years ago.

Here’s another one of Shane’s poses.

Chloe’s silliness at its peak.

Andrew picked out some surprises for the kids when we stopped by at a local toy shop on the way back. Bengal fire sparkling sticks!

It was the perfect way to end the night.

If he doesn’t make it as a rock star, he has a good future in baseball too. 🙂

After a good swim, we came to Greenport to have lunch.

Shane loves to sing and now whenever he hears music anywhere, he starts shaking his butt and dancing. He calls himself a rock star and when we take pictures, he’s got these “rockstar” poses. You’ll see it throughout the trip.

Lunch at Claudio’s Clam bar.
