School in Full Swing

Well, I had every intention of posting a back to school post but that didn't happen in a timely manner so I post a little now about school.

Kelsi is in Ms. Moore's 1st grade class and enjoying it. She is very social and has already had to have her desk moved to a different place in the classroom. She likes that she doesn't have to walk back from lunch with her teacher like in kindergarten. She has also informed me several times that in her words "Friday's rock!" because there is no homework and they have show and tell.

Shaylee is enjoying preschool. I was a little concerned at first because about a week before school was to start she cried for a good 5 to 10 minutes about not wanting to go because she would miss me. As the day got closer she seemed to be handling the idea better. That morning when I was getting her ready she surprised me with her deep concerns about school. She turned to me and said "Mom, will the other kids be nice to me? Will they play with me?" It about brought tears to my eyes. I had never realized she had such fear over such things. It all went well and yes the kids were nice and played with her. She now loves it and looks forward to it.

Courtney's Baby Blessing




We had Courtney's baby blessing on Sunday. Everything went really well. We spent the day on Saturday hanging out and swimming with Jeremy's family and Sunday after church we had Mexican food with my family. The kids seemed to really enjoy both days. Thanks to everyone for their love and support.

We are moved in...

Well we are pretty much moved into Grandmas's house. We have been enjoying every minute of our time here. Life is going good. Luke got grandma's yard all clean up and I have been trying to keep the inside clean for her. In fact grandma Luke and I started cleaning that deep freeze you know chipping the ice. It was going to to be a small project but then we ended up doing the whole thing. Crazy, but it is done now and that is good.

Aubrey has only asked a couple of times when we were going home. I explained to her that this is her new home now. She did say the other day when we drove up" look mom my new home" so I think that she is starting to understand. I know one thing she has enjoyed all of her cousins.

Luke is liking the smaller town, who wouldn't though. We just wanted to tell everyone thank you so much for all of your help we appreciate it so much. Thank you grandma Buck for letting us stay here and thanks to Mom and Dad for helping us get a truck. For all of those that helped us by moving babysitting whatever it was a big thanks too.
