First Day K and 4th!

 

The boys and I had an awesome first day of school today!

 I have a feeling that this is going to be a great year!

I have always had my picture with Ethan outside of my classroom every first day! This year Davin joined us!

Mrs. Sarah Yanez is such an awesome and crafty teacher!

 Ethan and Mrs. Bickford! He is going to love 4th grade!

 Rachel and Mrs. Maze

 The boys is my newly renovated classroom!

 It was a pain in the rear packing up all this stuff and moving it all back in, but today proved that it was so worth it! I love have the ceiling mounted projector. I can have my do camera off to the side of my smartboard, and I don't have to move the cart a million times a day. I also loved my mic that runs to my classroom speaker <3 p="p">

 I am going to have to get used to the noise with the tile, 

but at least I don't have vomit stained carpet anymore!

 

 This evening we celebrated my 33rd birthday!

We were all pretty tired, but overall it was an awesome day!

 I am just grateful that I am still physically able to teach!

Claire is 3!!!

Our pretty little Claire is already 3 years old! Going to the water park is one of her favorite past times. She is just like her brothers in that she loves anything to do with the outdoors, and loves riding her pink princess bike. She is all girl, and had become so outspoken recently. She loves Hello Kitty, anything princess, baby dolls, SHOES, and books. She also often pretends to build a piano out of blocks and sits and sings.

We hosted a birthday party/end of summer bash on the Saturday before Claire's birthday. Doug smoked brisket and chicken.

 

 Claire boo opening her present from Lila.

 

 She was all about her Toms from Aunt Whitney.

        

 She got the dream light she wanted!

         

 

 She loves her Kate and Anna.

 Monday, August 20th was her official 3rd birthday. She choose to go to Chuck E Cheeses for dinner. Of course, we had to have another cake, and she opened her Baby Alive from Mommy and Daddy.

 She is showing everyone she is finally 3!

Happy birthday, precious girl! We are so blessed to have you!
