School Starts: 5th and 7th

School started way back in August, but I have been remiss in uploading photos. Things have been busy at our household lately!

Here's Will's first day of school, back on August 21.  7th grade!



And Henry started on August 27.  5th grade -- and his last year at West U Elementary.



Both boys are having fantastic years so far.  

Henry's open house was just last week. It's always so fun to see his classroom and all the beginnign of the year work.  





This is Henry's sweet teacher, Ms. Brady. We really lucked out being in her classroom this year.  She is so kind and really makes learning fun. Henry's having his best year yet!


Author Mac Barnett came to West U a couple weeks ago. He only talked to our 3rd and 4th graders, but we bought Henry a signed book and he devoured it one day. 


This photo is from our summer reading celebration at school.


And this shot is from last week's Name That Book activity. The kids were designing evil lairs for the guinea pig in Wedgie and Gizmo.  


Will is playing volleyball this season. In the photo below, he's on the far right.  He's actually enjoying the sport more than he though he would and is showing improvement. 


This school year has been plenty full, but we're balancing all our different schedules and everyone is happy.
