Today was Austin's first day of Preschool!! He was super excited and couldn't wait to get there. He was "pumped" as he says, to wear his new spiderman backpack - which of course is way too big and will most likely be empty most of the time, but oh well...he looked cute as a button! He had a great time and we got to meet Grandma and papa settle for lunch and ice cream after school. Austin was extremely wound up about school when I picked him up and of course would hardly tell me a thing about his morning - typical, I suppose. He pretty much knows every kid in his class already since they are all the kids he already hangs out with all the time. Should be a fun year!! And yes, I did shed a tear or two, but mostly because Austin wouldn't even turn around to tell me goodbye!
As for other things....see below to know what we have been up to...
Who can resist a sticky ice cream cone??
We got to go on a mini vacation to Dodge City this past weekend for Grandma Casey's 90th b-day and reunion. we had a blast! Austin LOVED Dodge City - he thought staying at the hotel and swimming was a little slice of heaven! Ashlyn also enjoyed the swimming, while Gabriella was terrified to even go close to the water. Got to catch up with all my cousins and family which was awesome. What a great weekend.
And now, I am off to work on some math book stuff while the kids have "quiet time" ha ha ha ha
More later - don't forget to watch Sarah Palin tonight! wow! I bet she "makes history"...ha ha
Hope you are having the time of your life!
