And Summer is over...

August was a very busy month for us. Having just moved here in July, we had lots of company and kept busy. We went to our "backyard beach" and Second Beach in Newport a bunch. We also celebrated Matt's 35th birthday. Gaga came for a visit, and Francesca and cousin John also came and stayed with us. We ended our last weekend of summer at a corn maze- the pumpkins were growing and we could smell Fall in the air already here in New England. Nick started school Tuesday and is now a second grader in a school He comes home looking like he has run a marathon because they have no A/C, but I have been assured we won't be feeling this heat much longer. Nick is doing great, and Nate starts next Wednesday at a new preschool three mornings a week. I will be taking an online college class to renew my teaching certificate, and Matt is engrossed in classes at the War College. So you could say that we are truly all students here in this household! Here is to a short year in Rhode Island with a lot of learning! Have a happy September!

Look at this rock Mom!

The boys got sopping wet exploring for five minutes on the side of the road in Newport.
