The First Day of School 2010

Last week was the First day of 3rd grade for Miss Cass! She was so excited! There are so many friends in her class this year from around the neighborhood. It should be great fun. I asked her after she got home how many of the kids she knew, and she said she knew everyone accept for one boy that was new to the school. So fun to reconnect with classmates from other years, and other tracks. She is very excited to learn cursive this year, as well as her multiplications.



Let the partying begin!!!!! First, Kenz took this pic, and for whatever reason he looks kind of glum, but let me tell you, this kid is BEYOND excited to be in school...FINALLY!!!!! He was ready to start Kindergarten the day after Preschool ended. I told him he had to wait until after Cassidy was baptized, that gave him something to shoot for, and bought me some time and peace of mind, time is still such a hard concept for him. The baptism came and went, and we scrambled to find other things to measure by. He was really sad when Cass went last week and he didn't. When we went to meet his teacher for testing, he even had to take his backpack. Well today finally came. We walked Cass to school this morning, and he wanted to know when he got to go. I told him after lunch. At 10:30 he told me he was hungry. Sorry Charlie, we still have to wait a while. I took him and his little friend down the street that I tend to school, and they lined up, then out came his teacher, and off he went with the biggest grin in the world on his face!!!!! And as he entered the building... I started dancing!!!!!!!! Woot Woo!!!!!

The "Goon"

We spent most of Friday afternoon and evening at "The Goon" as Cutter calls it. We had a great time with all the cousins, dad's and Grandma and Grandpa J. We picnicked there, and rode tons of rides. The best for me was Rattlesnake Rapids. The adults got on one raft, the kids on the other. We all got completely drenched, and laughed the whole time. Great memories were made!
