First Day of School

Today the kids started school. Things went pretty smoothly because I had the clothes laid out, lunches packed, book bags packed.....Josh starts middle school today so I am a little worried, but hopefully things will be ok for him. I started my morning by walking them in, and then going for a 35 minute walk at the park. I'll finish my day by cleaning and organizing for Jack's upcoming yard sale. I'll enjoy today, but I hope to fin something to do with my spare time, or I'll be lost!!

Orientation Night

The kids went to see their classrooms and meet their teachers. Joshua officially starts middle school, so he has 3 teachers. One for Bible and History, one for math and science, and one for reading/writing/spelling. He has a locker too! His home room teacher is Mrs. Kraus....love her! She loves anything snoopy or peanuts themed! Jacob will be in third and has Mrs. Burden. I have had her before with Joshua. She is more relaxed, but a great teacher. She is a Pastor's wife over at Bethesda Baptist. Jenna starts second grade and has Miss Harmeling. She is new. She just graduated and is the daughter of Southside's pastor. I think I will love her. She seems very nurturing and that is what Jenna loves. Josh is excited to have Brandon in middle school with him. They will have lunch and PE together. Hope we can all get up and out the door on Monday!!

First Day of School

The kids started school today. It's great to have them back, but yet it's very sad. Joshua in 4th grade? Jacob in 2nd? My baby starting first? It's so hard to see them growing up so fast. They have great teachers again this year and I hope they have a great year!! (Joshua didn't want me to walk in with him and I couldn't get a picture of Jacob)
