First day of School

                                               Nathan ready for the Second Grade!

 Things are quiet around here with just Owen and also really messy. The older kids usually do a better job of distracting him. It is only 10:01 and we have baited the crab pots, painted and now we are playing in the sink. Oh boy gonna be a long day!

 Caitlin ready for her first day of Kindergarten. She let us take her into school for her first day.

                              Mom was sad but no tears, Caitlin was just too happy for tears!

                        Caitlin loves Mrs. Salmons already, they will have a great year!

                  She sat down and got right to work and so it was time for me to say good bye!

                She had a day off on Wednesday and then today she insisted she was riding the bus!

                                    Caitlin on her way to school on the bus!

Monday was the first day of school for Nathan, Caitlin had hers on Tuesday and then today was her first day with her entire class. She was so excited. This morning she said " Mommy you know yesterday was my last day at home, today I am going to school! " I wanted to drive her but no she was riding the bus with the big kids.


In sad news we would like to dedicate this blog post to Uncle Bob who passed away on Monday night. Bob was a avid blog follower. One of the few who told me periodically how much he liked to read the blog. I will never forget the look on Nate's face when Uncle Bob showed up at our house on his Harley Davidson! We will miss his pictures of the snow he always emailed us from West Virginia as well as any other wildlife he came across. His Christmas presents always were the first to get to our house and always won the prize for the prettiest wrapping (okay I think that was Aunt Roberta). The kids would stare at them for hours, it meant Christmas was finally here. We miss you Uncle Bob! REST IN PEACE!
With love
