First Day of School

Jaron is in 6th grade....he didn't want me taking too many pictures. He's becoming too cool for that. He had to bring his drum on the first day..he gets on the bus really early..but he is doing great with it! He has Cross Country after school; he is going to practice with the 7th and 8th graders...but he can't run in meets yet...that will be next year. He loves Chief Moses Middle School and says he loves his 4 teachers. He has his locker down pat and his ID number memorized for lunches..he's also made some friends. He says he likes it a lot better than elementary school...more to do and keep busy with.

Mikenna is in 3rd grade...she loves her teacher. They met at the Garden Heights Open House the other night and hit it off right away. Mrs. Copley gave Mikenna a hug and asked her what she likes to do for fun. If you know Mikenna...she has a fun loving personality and loves to be busy...so that really helped Mikenna feel comfortable right away. She likes to work hard; but have a fun upbeat attitude at the same time...and her teacher has that same attitude! She made some friends...of course they are all boys...she likes to play with them because they can keep up with her better than the girls. She is still playing with her soccer team in Pasco this Fall.

Toby and I are enjoying the bus system this year. We have taken our kids to and from school for 3 years now; and we are excited they are riding the bus this year. I did get emotional..as usual on the first day.

Brielle keeps me hopping though!!
