We had a busy month! This is out of order--North (Hank's bestie) and Hank at his birthday party

Friends

My mom and I went to the Kentucky Derby with friends

Me in the background lol

Drinking Sprite while watching soccer, as one does when one is a third child

Ready for church!

At Hank's Indian Pines graduation! This was the sweetest school--Hank went there for three years and loved it. Cary Woods has been an adjustment--it's a lot bigger, and I think Hank liked the smallness of IP.

The bouncy house for the aforementioned birthday

Party girls

A sweaty Lee with Coco

Hank's Ninja turtle cake. Oh, I forgot Ninja turtles in his list of obsessions! He was very obsessed with them for a while.

With his spoils/gifts

Ready for school! Second grade with Ms. Braswell, who we loved

Lee has a new dad

After school ended we went to North Carolina. Well, me and the boys and Wuwu and Poppy. Pete went to sleepaway camp outside of Asheville for 5 days and I spent that time with Hank at The Brown House.

Camp drop-off

I think this restaurant was flooded by Helene (it's in Biltmore Village, where we've had a few delicious meals)

Hank is a doll. He's just very agreeable and calm. Mat and I joke that spending time with him gives you the same benefits as meditation.

Pete doing camp things

Lee back at home

Pete on his way home from Asheville to Auburn

Out of order--my friends at the Derby

Lee at home with Mat

A lot of snakes live in our rock garden. The boys named this one Prime (after the drink) and he would let us observe him if we stayed back and were quiet. Then Lee came out one day, and we never saw Prime again.
