Long story but if you have been watching it you will recognize our Back to School theme for this year.
No Limits.
We have all been inspired by a group of 3 men who have been traveling through various terrains across Morocco. One is blind. One broke his ankle while doing the show and is competing in a cast. The other is like the big brother and encouragers. They are amazing. They do not limit themselves... and they do not quit. Know what their team name is? You guessed it, NO LIMITS! What a great theme for the start of a new school year.
Tonight we held our first ever Back to School Celebration/Banquet in honor of these precious kids... and their awesome daddy.
(Let me clarify... I do NOT want school to start back up... but since we have bills to pay & my kids need to learn... and I am not in charge of the world... yadda yadda yadda... it begins tomorrow whether I like it or not, SO... Let's Celebrate it!)

A toast to "No Limits"
The final treat from summer...
goodbye summer we will miss you terribly.
Lots of things are going to be changing come tomorrow morning. The lunch boxes are already out and half packed... backpacks at the door... and the poor boy had to sleep in his own room tonight. First time all summer and it did not go over very well. Jack really does not like school nights :( Poor dude. The girls had to go to bed early...
I guess the other thing that will be changing is that I will likely get more time to blog:) There is always an upside. But I've got to tell you... I am going to miss my family.
