Samantha is on the go.

We have had a busy week. We went in search of Cave Valley in ZNP. I think we found the valley but not the cave we were looking for. We found a Cave but not the one with the rock art. We will have to try again another weekend

The First Day of School and More

Wednesday, August 13, 2008

This month is full of first. Katerina has started third grade (Grandma Hall is her teacher). Katie is so excited for this year. She is determined that she is going to learn it all as fast as possible.
Ethan has started first grade. We'll see if he likes going all day. He has a really good teacher this year too. We are expecting a great year.
Amberli has started preschool. (She is going to Ethan's old preschool.) She loves her teacher! She has her very own back pack with a lunch box (she tries to talk me into making her a lunch to take). Amberli has also started ballet. She has been waiting a year to start (the teacher won't take them before they are 3). She ran up to her teacher and gave her a big hug (it was like she was saying Finally Here!)
Samantha is sleeping through it all (at least the daylight hours). We will celebrate when she sleeps through the night.
