November in a Nutshell

First Day of Preschool

And there she goes...

Opening New Doors

Ok, maybe not literally since these are the same doors we use to go to Sunday School each week, but for Kate they now represent a new part of her life; K2 preschool.

Kate starts a Tuesday/Thursday (9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.) preschool program this week and this Tuesday she was very excited to go and meet her new friends and teachers at open house.

She got her very own Salem Weekday Preschool "backpack".

And a name tag on her cubby.

And some quality meet and greet time with some of her classmates, Ms. Kristi, her teacher, and playdough!

Of course Ella is in her class and here they are posing as the big girls they are...

I can't believe that on Thursday I will be leaving this little cutie at school for the first time!

Wishing Every Day Was Like a Day At The Beach

2 Months, 12 Days, 22 hours, and 30 Minutes

Is exactly how long it has been since my last post. Let's just say this past week things have been settling down around the Hinton House and hopefully we will be back on track with the blog!

Well, I've been trying/planning on getting family pictures made since last fall and it hadn't worked out (haircuts, seasons, weather, etc.) until this past weekend. I'm very excited to share these pictures with you but unfortunately they will only be available for viewing for 4 more days. After that they will be taken off the site and unavailable for viewing or purchase.

Here are the details on how to check out the pics:

I think Jenn did a wonderful job capturing our family! Hope you enjoy!
