Luke's 1st day of Kindergarten

Luke had a great 1st day of school. He woke up early with a smile on his face! Since Daddy was off, he and Kai took Luke to class. I was able to sneak over there for just a second as I had a group of kids and parents knocking on my door as well! We are so happy that Matthew, a life long friend and playmate, is not only in Luke's class, but that he will be going home with him as well after school since kinder is half day. What a blessing that Irene not only will have him, but as a teacher herself, can help with his school work if needed. Mrs. Cash actually attends our church and even has a kinder of her own at home! We are so fortunate to have her!

My Classroom

I thought it would be fun to post pics. of my classroom this year. Before....32 kiddos enter it and it will forever be our room not just mine. Thank you to all that helped including Bill, Eryn, and Kyle. For all of you non teachers out there this take HOURS upon HOURS of free time to prepare. Here's to a great year! :0)

A last minute Disney trip.

Last Sunday evening we met the Metzgers at Disney. It was a nice surprise that my mom and Eryn showed up as well! Auntie Eryn is a HUGE HIT and FAVORITE with pretty much all kiddos. As always we had a great time. The boys ended up spending the night with my mom and Eryn. They even headed back to Disney the next day, where Eryn took Kai on Tower of Terror for the 1st time. He didn't cry, but also said he doesn't want to go on it again any time soon!

Tonight's Happenings.....

Tonight Luke lost his 2nd tooth! While I was out shopping Bill ended up pulling out Luke's other bottom tooth due to Kai accidentally kicking it when they were horsing around.

Meanwhile.....turkey here was supposed to go and get baby lotion for me to put on him after his bath. Something we do every night since they day he was born. How he mistook baby powder for lotion I am not sure. None the less (of course) a mess ensued. Luke graciously tried to help me clean it up.

Barnum & Bailey Circus

Cousins

Last week my niece Lauren and my two nephews Austin and Ethan stayed at our house for the week. There was a lot of swimming and laughter going on between cousins. It will be a memory that will be them forever! Aside from the big slumber party we went to the movies, out to lunch, to the jump house, to the circus, and to the fair!
