First Day of School

Jackson, Harper and Mason ~ I have no doubt this will be your best year yet!  Can't believe all three are now Centennial Buffalos!  And how can I have 1st graders and a Preker???  You three will crush it this year!  Learn lots, be yourselves and wow them all!  The sky is the limit little ones!  So excited to see what this year will hold for you three!
 
So excited Mason has our favorite Pre-K teacher Ms. Walker!  This will make his transition to Centennial seamless!  M was a little shy on meet the teacher so J&H jumped into the picture! 
Jackson was so excited to get Mrs. Stephens!  She seems amazing and is already a saint in my eyes!  So organized and has so much control over her classroom! 
Ms. Cox is just as amazing! We hit the jackpot with all three teachers!  This is the first year that J&H have been in separate classes.  Although they always did great together it was time for a change.  So far so good!
Obligatory first day of school pictures!


So happy to have these three reunited at the same school!  Makes my heart happy!

Harper was beyond excited to find out her bestie Maddie is in Ms. Cox's class as well! 
And M was so excited to have a few of his tball buddies in his class! Love these sweet boys!



Looking forward to a great year!

Annual Breckenridge vacay

Every summer we look forward to our long weekend in Breckendridge.  It's the perfect break from the heat and the perfect family weekend before the hectic season of school and sports starts.
 
These faces say it all!

 Cooler weather and no humidity means we are outside our entire trip!

 We spent the first morning hiking and fishing at one of our favorite spots, Montgomery Reservoir.  Can't beat a picnic lunch with this view!










 Each of the kiddos caught a rainbow trout!  M caught his on this first cast!



 Harper's' trout was a jumper!

 And J caught the last one of the day!
 

 My brother in laws two brothers and their families were in Breck while we were there.  We met for dinner at our favorite pizza place, Fatty's!  So much fun catching up with this crew on vacation. 
The next morning we tried a new adventure, white water rafting!  It rained our entire float and was pretty chilly.  Despite the rain, we had the best time.  We were already getting wet so why not raft in the rain.  First and most memorable float trip. The kids definitely won't forget their daddy falling out of the raft when we hit a rock :)
Since we were on vacation we had to eat icecream every night!
We made a trip to the top of Peak 8 to do some of the mountain activities.  J and Tyler did the mountain roller coaster while H and M did miniature golf!  Sounds like the coaster was quite the thrill ride!

 J was under the weather the entire trip so he got lots of extra TLC!  I would never pass up an opportunity to rock this sweet boy napping!


 


Such a great end to summer!  Until next time!

Sadie Love

These three sure do LOVE their Sadie girl!  She is so loving, patient and gentle with the kids.  Mason seriously can't keep his hands, legs, feet and entire body off of her!  The kids love for Sadie sometimes makes me overlook the chewing, digging and muddy paws :)  She has been the perfect addition to the Miller family and we can't imagine life without our Sadie girl!
