These are completely out of order, so we will start with today and go backward a few weeks...
Today Luke started school. We now have a big second grader on our hands. He was very excited to get back to school and see all his friends. I wasn't nearly as excited. Luke has been such a help to me over the past three months. I also got to spend a lot of quality time with him while his brothers were napping and I am truly going to miss that time together.
We made a quick trip to Kearney on Saturday night. Our main goal was to let the kids enjoy the pool for a little while. They all had fun, but I didn't get any pictures of them in the pool. Grandma Elaine went with us and Matthew and Luke stayed in her room with her. They thought that was pretty cool!
Some nasty clouds above our house. They looked so strange I had to get a picture.
We had some fun at the Chase County Fair. Luke was even daring enough to try some of the bigger rides. He told me the other day that he wouldn't have gone on them if it wasn't for Tori going with him! So, thanks Tori for taking him on them!
Matthew going down the slide. He would have gone on the bigger rides if he was tall enough. He likes to be big like his older brother so I don't think it even occurs to him that he should be scared of some of the stuff. 
I managed to get Abby's hair in a pony tail on top of her head. She really doesn't like it and the boys were concerned with why I did it. 
On August 5th, Luke turned 7. We had a pool party for him and then had a BBQ at the park. He had a great birthday and recieved a lot of very nice gifts! 
Dave and Amy made these cookies for Luke's party. The kids loved them!
