1st Day of School ~ Kindergarten

Well, lots of pictures today! Skyler started school August 20th and seems to really like it. The first picture is the front of Skyler's school. It is diagonally across the street from us. A pretty quick walk. The next two pictures are of Skyler out in front of the house. He is missing a tooth on top in the front and the other one is about ready to come out so it sticks out a little. He wanted me to make sure that I took a picture of his backpack, Pirates of course. He is in room 2 with Mrs. Garcia. We went into his room and found the desk with his name on it. When all the children had sat down Mrs. Garcia said ok everyone, turn around and tell your parents to have a good day, and say goodbye, and we the parents were dismissed!!! His teacher says he is focused and motivated! He seems to be doing quite well, really likes it and is making friends. On thing about Skyler, he is very social.

David is at his same preschool and has moved up to a pre-K class. I anticipate that he will be there this year and next as he will not turn five until October 08. That will give him a great foundation for school!

This morning I woke up to race sounds. A couple of years ago the boys got this racetrack and the cars that go with it. They are the ones that you shake and they go so at 6:55 they were racing away! They argue about who should sit in the middle.

Skyler got this great camera for his birthday in May and has been having a great time with it. We had to put new batteries in it yesterday and now it has a new lease on life. Here is a picture of Skyler taking a picture of me taking a picture of him!

Speaking of birthdays, David is busy planning his. It isn't until October, but every day he tells me something that he wants for his birthday! We are going to Disneyland for his birthday. I called and they do a birthday celebration where everyone gets a little cake to decorate and Micky and Minny come and sing happy birthday. We are going on October 6th if you want to join us!

Well, Shannon is leaving tomorrow for his annual fishing trip with the guys. He is starting to get a little squirly. I think I will venture into the toy room and clean up a little.

If you don't hear from me in a couple of days, send help, it means the toys won!

Happy Labor Day!!!

Love ya,
