Ava's Big Day

It's here! Ava's been waiting to go to "real" school for a long time! She loved everything about it. It's funny what they think is important to tell you when they get home. She told be how they can get drinks by counting, "one banana, two banana, three banana, SPLIT!" and then they're done. She also liked the pink jacket her teacher was wearing, and her new friend that she met named...Brooklyn:) She's also been excited about the bus but I made her wait 1 day so I could take her and pick her up myself. I just can't believe how fast they're growing:(

Tuachan

Ah, Tuachan! I look forward to this all year. It is so pretty there with all the red rock and they always put on a good show! We went to see The Little Mermaid. The kids were so excited to see how they were going to do everything, since so much of it is in the water. They did a really great job! Of course, we had the 4 tallest people EVER come and sit right in front of us! The kids all gravitated toward me and Denim so we constantly had a kid on our lap. Which usually isn't so bad unless you're in 105 degree weather!:0 The kids were so good though even with the extra late night. The show didn't get over until 11:45 then we had to drive back home. We rolled into Cedar around 1:00am on a school night, the night before Ava big first day of Kindergarten! It was worth it though!

Before the show some of the cast members put on a little show. Brooklyn got called up to be a pirate. She put on a hat and patch and they gave her a sword to hold. Then they did a lot of singing:) After the show some of the crowd came and talked to Brooklyn about it. She told me, "I'm famous!" It was cute!

Friday Night Yoga

I put a movie on for the kid's "Friday Night Movie" but they soon figured out I was downstairs doing a little "Friday Night Yoga" and they just had to join. Notice they used their blankets as their mats:)

BK's First Day

Brooklyn started school on Thursday. She was excited and nervous! She had her clothes picked out for days. I worried about her all day but she did just fine:) I can't believe I have a second grader! Time is going way too fast!

Oh really?

I told the kids that they needed to go clean their rooms and to NOT come out until they were done! About 5 minutes later Cros came out. dressed in his boots and cowboy hat. In his low, adult voice voice he said, "Hi! I'm Woody. Don't worry, I left the kid in his room to clean."
How can you get angry at that?!
