100 days and counting!

Happy Labor Day! What a beautiful weekend we were blessed with, the weather was just perfect! We started swimming lessons this past week and Kennedy was so excited when she realized we were getting in the water. The teacher could tell right away that she has taken lessons before because she was so comfortable. She was jumping off the side of the pool into the water, going under the water like she's been doing it for years, she is a pro at blowing bubbles now and loves all of the songs we sang! It was a lot of fun and we both really enjoyed it! Can't wait until next week!She will be starting Gymboree on Wednesday. My mom is off every Wednesday, so that is going to be their day together :) Can't wait to hear how her class goes! She is walking all over the place all of a sudden, or shall I say RUNNING! Its so funny to see her go flying by me like she has been doing it forever.
On Saturday we went to our friend Stephanie's daughter, McKenna's 1st birthday party. They live in a beautiful house in the country with plenty of ground for her to walk around. She was in her glory! She had a blast on Madison and McKenna's slide, swing & play house. She loves being outside and we had a really nice time!
Every week since Kendal has left I have had Kennedy make him some sort of art project. We have made him a plaster mold of her handprint, colored pictures, practiced our shapes and colors with markers and crayons and this week we did finger painting:) She gets so excited whenever I give her something new to play with. Kendal has been having a tough time since he left home and we are doing our best to keep his spirits up by sending him little pieces of home every week. Kennedy and I put together a box for him every Tuesday and also mail him letters as often as possible. We are exactly 100 days away from being together again! He will be home for 12 days in December and we are counting down every second of every day!!!
We hope everyone had a relaxing & fun weekend~ And I know this is a few days late....
HAPPY 50th BIRTHDAY to My Mother-In-Law, DarRay!! Hope you had a great party, wish we could have been with ya'll!
Love to everyone!

She loves rocking on her horse, who she has named Bob!
