Logan's ABCs

Back to School

The two big kids successfully started the school year. They were both very excited, and slightly nervous, for their new adventures into 1st grade and PreK.

K was excited to see his friends again, and I think he was getting kinda bored of being home all day, but he said he was going to miss me and he kept checking to make sure I was going to miss him too.

C was more than excited to start PreK. She got into the same program that K did 2 years ago. Same classroom, same teacher, etc. She knew the drill already, but was slightly nervous about "being away from me." But she walked into the classroom and sat down and got to work like she had been doing it everyday! After school she even said, "Mom, I forgot about you a little bit," which means that she was having so much fun that she wasn't worried about missing me. Glad she loves it!

L was not going to be left out of the picture taking. He got right in line and kept saying "cheese" until we were done taking pictures.

Here comes the bus!!

Like a champ!

Very fortunately, C has a good friend in the class; and very fortunately for me, they live close and we are carpooling every day. Driving to the Y only once a day is heaven! :-)

C was cracking me up while we were taking pictures! I did not give her any instruction on posing, and during this sequence she would change her leg position every time she heard the camera click. I was dying!

Summer Camp

During the month of July K participated in our towns summer camp. For only $20 they were there for 1/2 day, 5 days a week, and were bussed to and from a nearby church. They did arts and crafts and lots of playing and even weekly field trips. It was WAY worth the money ... THEN they had an end of camp party which we could all attend. It was at our local park and there were 3 bouncy houses, a rock wall, pony rides, petting zoo, face painting, pizza, hot dogs, and the ice cream truck came by ALL FOR FREE!! That party alone was worth the $20!!

This is K with his two buddies M&M. They all ride the same bus to school and I had been hearing about them all school year but had never met them. I finally did and could understand why he talked about them so much, they all get along fantastically! K is the the triplet to their twins. :-)

All of the kids rode the ponies. K only once. He liked the bouncy houses better.

C rode probably 8 or 9 times. She was in heaven, and would hop off and get in line again.

L even went twice! He was a little nervous getting on at first, but warmed up by the end of the ride.

His second ride, he was all smiles!

L was actually HILARIOUS with all of the animals.

Lovin' the rock wall, but wishing dad was around to give him a few pointers.

  C got to hang out with Molly a little bit, one of her favorite people.

And the "triplets" just had a great time!
