Connor's Kindergarten Bee Run
It was so much fun watching Connor and his classmates participate in the Bee Run for their school. Connor did awesome and ran the whole time and always had a smile on his face!

Roasting smores at the Kenndy's again... always a fun time!
Poppy and Mimi made it home safely from Oregon and got to stay the night on the way home. The kids were so excited to see them!
Silly cousins!
Mike and I got a date night (thanks to Mal babysitting)! We went to Country Uncorked, a concert at the Old Sugar Mill. We had a great time listening to music, drinking wine, and relaxing.

Last weekend
Last weekend, Mal and Dave and Jill came up to see Connor play soccer and we took the opportunity to celebrate Breast Cancer Awareness month with Jill. We had a nice day together and got to watch the Giants win a playoff game in the 18th inning! Here are some pics of the day...

Photos from the last few weeks...
Well, I'm finding less and less time to blog with our busy schedule. But I want to keep it up becuase it's a great way to document all the fun and exciting times of the Louis family! This is a random assortment of pictures taken over the last few weeks, but it'll give the idea of what we've been up to... School, soccer, family time, and fun times with friends!
I've had the opportunity to volunteer in Connor's class a few times now. It's so fun to go into the classroom and be a mom rather than the school psychologist. Today I got to lead the students in a watercolor painting activity. It's nice to meet Connor's classmates and get to observe Connor as a student. I am so very proud to be his mom. He is a hard working student, he listens attentively, and he is such a good helper. I'm really proud of him. He is excelling in math and is learning to read which is more exciting than I could've imagined.
Michael and I had a date night and got to see Jason Aldean in concert again. Mike came down with a bad cold that weekend, but he took lots of meds and made it through the night. It was a great concert and we survived having our first babysitter for the kids. :-) They loved the babysitter and Maddie cried when she woke up the next morning because she thought she was going to live with us!
We really enjoyed meeting Dave and Jill's good friends from Scotland, Tommy and Theresa. We got to host them for dinner at our house, and celebrate them at a BBQ in Modesto. They are such loving, kind, and generous people. They showered us with gifts and they are the type of people that you feel comfortable with immiediately. We hope to see them very soon!
The kids and I met friends at Bogle Winery for an afternoon of wine tasting and catching up. It was a big group of friends and we had a great time. We are so blessed to have such awesome wineries close by, and even more blessed to have so many wonderful friends in our community. I really feel so thankful that we have so many friends who live close to us and have kids the same age. It's very special!
These are some pictures taken at the last few soccer games... This one is of Maddie with our neighbor Troy and the next one is with Connor and Troy's older sister, Skylar. The next is the kids with Auntie Mandy and CJ when they came to cheer Connor on. :-)
Occasionally, Connor likes to surprise us with breakfast. He has such a giving heart and loves to take care of his family. I just had to document this as I never want to forget how sweet and caring he was at such a young age!
The Kennedy's, our next door neighbors, invited us over for some marshmallow roasting on their new firepit. We had a great time and ended up staying very late! The kids watched a movie and Maddie eventually fell asleep on me as the adults sipped wine, laughed, and chatted. Luckily, we didn't have a long walk home. :-) I couldn't imagine being blessed with better neighbors.
