Summer...First Days of School

We had a busy a summer as you can already tell. New movies came out, boys had vacations at Nana and Papa's. I got to be down there with them too. Michael & Ammon went to Washington DC. I will let him post some pictures so you can see. For the most part I think we were all glad when school started. Except Ammon missed the first 2 days of school because he had pneumonia in August for crying out loud!!
Talmage was pretty excited about his class. All his best buddies and girls are there. I was glad to see him happy!

































Ammon started the following Monday. His new teacher was someone that I had heard some negative things about her teaching style, so I did everything I could to get him switched out. The principal told me to please give it a couple of weeks. During those weeks Ammon missed more school because of being sick, really had an attitude about going back to school, was not being a happy 3rd grade kid. There seems to be so much pressure on these kids in school that they don't always get to really be kids. Needless to say, I did get the teacher that we wanted and Ammon is more than happy to go to school.































Finally, Garrett got to go his preschool class. He had been waiting and waiting happily but when the day came it took a little bit to get him on the bus. He did great and now he justs runs to the bus.
