fall fun

1st day of school

I had the wrong lens on my camera, and we were not getting out the door as fast as we needed to (yep...already on day 1).  Therefore, I didn't get much for first day photos, but at least I got one.  After day 2, both boys are happy!

Eli and I met my parents for supper on the way to the lake Thursday night.  I had to snap a picture of him bellied up to the bar.  He was watching "Wheel of Fortune".
