This is Nathan on his first day of pre-school. We got into this great program with one of the local schools and several of my freinds have sent their kids here. One of his best freinds Ethan Todd goes with him. On his first day he was a champ. He ran in the room, started playing, and didn't look back. Every morning when he wakes up he asks if he has school. We only go on Tuesday and Thursday. He always comments on the songs that they sing and the games that they play. Those seem to be his favorite things that they do. The other picture is of him with Ethan and their teacher Mrs. G.

This is Kenyon on her first day of school. She is now in second grade! I can hardly believe it. She is so big. School is going well for her. We had a little adjustment period while we were figuring out the homework situation. It takes us at least one hour a day to complete. That doesn't include the 2o minutes of reading time! It is a tough regimend, but I do think that this school distirct is great. She is learning so much and seems to love it. Her teacher is fun and a little wacky and Kenyon likes it that way. It goes along with the silly personalities in our family.

In the photo up top (I don't know how to add a picture in this spot) notice the earings. Kenyon got her ears pierced for her 7th birthday. She still asks me if different people know that she got her ears peirced. It is hilarious. She went with 3 of her little girl friends. One girl cried, two were brave and the other went outside and threw up afterwards. Luckily the latter was not Kenyon. She was a brave one and was pleasantly surprised. I will post some birthday pictures and the ear piercing picutres later.

Turkey anyone? Collin is ready for Thanksgiving with his mini turkey. If only he would like real food. Hmm one day I will get him to eat something besides cheerios. He is constantly amusing us. Kenyon and Nate can't get enough of him- although he gets his fill of them when they get too close. He always wants them around just not in his face. He will be one in 4 days. I can not believe it!
