Schools In!!

It's that time again...school started for us on August 17th. It came way too early, maybe because it seemed to be only the middle of the month and we were hoping for the end. Who knows?? Braden was excited to go back but the rest of us felt cheated. Thomas said it wasn't fair that we only went camping once and both he & Colton asked Braden if he was crazy for wanting to go back.

Anyhow, we can't stop the clock and it certainly won't wait for us to be ready...so ready or not, here we go.

The boys always look handsome, but there is something about new school clothes, new shoes and the very first day of a new school year. Thomas has started Junior High at our Charter School, he will be learning his second year of Spanish, how to play the Cello, world history and technology to name a few. Colton is starting fifth grade and will start ballroom dance this week. Colton is excited to "blow things" up in science. Braden too will be in ballroom and is starting second grade. He is also starting Mandarin Chinese for his first year. (pretty cool, huh??)

Kyle started preschool with Mom a week later. He was excited to always have school at our house and mom being his teacher. Mom enjoys teaching him and appreciates his example to the other preschoolers. He sits very patiently, ready to learn while mom tries to rope up the wild ones. :)
