William was and always unquestionably IN! He Always is!!! Jebby, on the other hand, is Jebby.  Either he is All In or he is All Out! You just never know...

Jebby's 1st Day of Preschool

James had his First Day at First Presbyterian! Miss Pat and Miss Jill are his teachers for this year! He was a little unsure about going to Preschool all by himself but ran quickly in the door to play when Miss Jill opened it!!!

Going to open the door for his good Friend Callie...

Trying to be the First to get in the Door with his Wipes! ;)

Mountaineers, Caviliers, and Lightning...Oh My!!!

Football is Finally Back and the Ballard Boys could not be more excited!!!!  The Ballard Boys started off with Paint the Town Orange on the Downtown Mall.  So Fun with Players from other sports, Cheerleaders, The Cavalier, and, of course, the Band Marches down the middle!

Jebby taking in a little Juggling!

William's bird's eye view of the Parade

 Saturday Morning, the Ballard Boys had to focus on the Mountaineers Opening Game...

Not sure if it's the Hair or the Ring Pop that makes him More Intimidating...

After watching the Mountaineers bring home their first Victory of the Season, the Ballard Boys rushed down to Scott Stadium to cheer on the Caviliers...

 However, by the time Daddy met us at our seats, they were clearing the Stadium for Lightning!

So we hid from the storm for about two hours, ate popcorn, then went on home to take in the rest of the game from the Dryness of our Living Room! Rain was good Luck, I guess, Cavaliers also brought home an Opener Win!!! Can't Wait for Next Week...

First Day of Kindergarten

Our Little William started Kindergarten today at Hollymead Elementary! He said he "Loved All Of It!" We are so close to school that he is lucky enough to walk! So at 7:30 this morning, the Ballard Fam walked their new little Kindergartner to school!!!

Let's Go In!

James and Mommy were So Excited to See that Little Boy come out of the Door at 2:30!

All-n-All, William gave Kindergarten a 2 Thumbs Up!
