First day of school

Last Thursday was the start of another school year. The kids were really excited! School supplies were bought and back packs were packed. Monday - Wednesday of that week Alayna was home with a UTI...high fever and miserable. I thought for sure she was going to miss the first couple days of school, but she perked up, and since she wasn't contagious and didn't want to miss it, we let her go. She was thrilled! :)

Josiah started 4th grade, Alayna is in 1st grade and Dan is in his 2nd year as a principal at WFHS.

Setharoo was a little bummed to not be going to school, so we started having school at home. We spend time each day working through preschool activities and I have to admit I'm a bit surprised at how much he enjoys it and his patience to work at it.

Summerland

Earlier this month, while I was hanging out with a girlfriend and then shopping for bridesmaid dresses with my cousin for her wedding...the rest of the family was having fun without me. Though I had a great time while I was away from them, I'm certain it shouldn't be allowed for them to have fun without me!! :)

Friends for 13 years...wowza!










Mini - Vacation

Earlier this month Dan had a conference he had to go to for work. The kids and I went a day after he left and enjoyed 1 night in the hotel. We were hoping to also enjoy the Bismarck zoo, but it just so happened that the day we were going to go....it was closed because they were removing trees from a bad storm. Bummer! Regardless, we enjoyed our mini-vacation, the kids had a blast in the pool area :)
