She was so excited for this day we even had a count down.
Because I was out of commission, Matt took Sammie to her class and stayed with the rest of the parents for the first 45 minutes and did activities with her. He said she was just grinning from ear to ear.
While we were taking pictures Eston wanted his taken. He will start preschool this year and can't figure out why we haven't sent him yet.
On a different note, earlier this summer I had started having knee pain in my right knee. The doctor told me to wait a few more weeks before doing an MRI just to see if it healed on it's own. The pain decreased quite a bit and I had decided that it was just a pulled muscle and went about my entire (active) summer with some discomfort. Matt finally talked me into going back to the doctors office to have it looked at. I went in on a Monday and he told me to go get an MRI which I got two days later on Wednesday. I got a call from Dr. Hess the next day telling me that I had a meniscus (sp) tear and it would need surgery. It just so happens that he had an opening the next day.
So just this past Friday Matt took me in for knee surgery (a scope). I am surprised at how quick the recovery has been and that I am already walking around (kind of) without crutches on it. We are so grateful for all the friends and family that have helped with kids and for Matt's family for taking the twins for a full week back to Idaho so I wouldn't have to chase them up and down the stairs (among other things).

wow... knee surgery! I wish I were there to bring you dinner! Clark has his meniscus repaired a couple years ago too... so fun. Glad to hear you are recovering ok. Miss hanging out with you guys!
I think I say this all the time, but you are truly SUPERWOMAN, Brynn! How crazy to find out you have to have knee surgery. You were probably thinking, "Um, sorry, you must have the wrong girl. I have 4 kids under the age of 5. How the heck am I supposed to recover from surgery?!"
I'm just glad that it's been a quick recovery and that you won't be having discomfort anymore!
Brynn, looks like you've had a fun summer! That picture of Lucy and Matt in the sleeping bag is so cute and Eston asleep on the boat - and well all of them. :) I'm glad you were able to get your knee taken care of and that you're recovering quickly! How fun that Sammie is in school. I'm sure she's loving it!
Glad recovery was quick! I haven't had time for my own blog let alone looking at others, but it's always so fun to see those first day of school pictures. I'm excited to post mine on Sunday. The kids have loved school and Jayden feel so important that he has something to go to as well! The kids are too cute and glad to see you guys are doing well.
