School days!

It's amazing that the summer went as fast as it did, but all good things have to come to an end.  School started on Tuesday, September 8, 2015.  Blake is in 3rd grade and his teacher is Mrs. Bular.  Cora started kindergarten with Mr. Williams.  The kids were both fairly excited to start, yet did not want summer to be over.
They could not get out of the house early enough!


Ready for his first day!


They still love each other! :-)

Cora waiting for her classmates.  She started getting a little nervous here, she didn't want me to leave "just yet".



The first day was a half day.  Cora was absolutely exhausted, as this video portrays:




The next day was a full day.  They both came home with lots of energy left over and said that they had great days!  Cora's favorite part was music class.  Blake said his favorite part of the day was the dinner I made! (pot roast and mashed cauliflower)  Cora literally talked for about two hours straight telling me all the details about her day.  She said she made two new friends - Brooklyn and Kaylee, and also Kylee.  She told me that there is another girl in her class that sits at her table but that she is not friends with.  I asked her why not?  She said that this girl doesn't listen to Mr. Williams and even got under the table and laid on the floor.  So, I'm glad she's picking the less troublesome friends so far!  Blake was not as chatty about his day, but he said he still enjoyed seeing all his friends again!

Blake is also playing youth football.  His first game is 9/20.  Cora has mentioned that she would like to take karate lessons......so we will see.
