A Sweet Beginning

We've been doing lots of swimming and playing outside to enjoy the last few days of our summer! I have one more week of training/preparation and then the kids come back the 18th.  I can't wait to see them all :)  The end of summer is definitely bittersweet.  I loved every minute of my time at home with Ava and will miss her terribly!  However, I also love being productive at work during the day, having a job with such meaning, and the excitement both Matt and I have when we arrive home every afternoon and get family time. 

Here are some pics from our last few weeks :)
