First Day of School


Ooops...Early morning error!

This the face Kaylee made when I asked her about the first day of school.
 This is how she really feels!  Totally excited.



As we were leaving the school, I introduced Cole to the principal.  She asked how his day was and he told her that "it was the best day of my life."  Yes...he likes Kindergarten.  



Chad's teacher moved up a grade so he has the same teacher as last year.



Cole has the same Kindergarten teacher that Chad did.  She told me that all day he asked, "Did Chad do this in Kindergarten?".  When we moved schools we never dreamed Cole would be able to have her.  What a happy day it was when I learned she moved too!  We have prayed for Mrs. E since Cole was two.

Cason isn't sure what to think with all his siblings gone.  But he is figuring it out really fast!

Camping Petit Jean


The week before school started, we enjoyed a camping trip to Petit Jean State Park.  It was beautiful with a gorgeous waterfall, wonderful lookouts, and fun trails.








While we did one bike trail, most of the trails at this part are for walking.  Chad struggled with this as we are a "biking family" as he calls it.



To get to the waterfall it was over 2 miles of rocky, hilly terrain.  Thankfully the temperature wasn't too bad, especially for August.
