The First Day of School

Well, it is that time of year again. The kids started school this week at their new elementary. Isaac and Lily started on Tuesday the 19th and Joe started on Wednesday. They are loving school so far. I am really glad we moved when we did because they already knew quite a few kids before they went back. Lily's best friend Eleyna is in her class. Joe still isn't sure whether he likes school or not. He seems to like it but he still thinks that if he doesn't want to go he doesn't have to. I have been walking the kids to school each morning and they have breakfast before school starts. It is going to take Joe quite a while to get use to the new schedule.



This is what Clara did while the kids were at school.

Cute pictures! I think Clara got the best deal!

She doesn't think so. She cries every morning that she doesn't get to go to school. She'll start preschool in a few weeks and then she won't be so grumpy anymore.

I like the pictures, too. I can totally see Joe thinking school is optional depending on his mood. "No, I don't think I'll go to school today, Mom." :) I miss all of you and hope you're doing well!

You're kids look like they've grown over the summer! Logan totally misses Isaac, school won't be the same without him- they've been together since preschool. But we actually came back to Utah last week, still haven't decided what in the world we are doing. Brazil was way fun though.

Look how cute they all are! We miss you guys. I'm happy you're doing this blog so we can keep in touch since I'm the worst keeper in touch(er) ever. However, I am the best word maker up(per) ever, so that almost counts.

Adding to Candie's post: or get her in gymnastics. She's one buff little girl! She might be our family's only chance for an Olympian. :)

Since acting, modeling and gymnastics can all be expensive I am looking for donations. Just deposit any desired amount into our swiss bank account and I won't mention it to anyone.
