The elementary school's first Monday after school began was the event everyone had been talking about. I was very grateful we were all given glasses. The school provided them for K, D, and M; Hubby's work gave him a pair, and Hubby's co-worker, when he explained the hardware store was sold out, gave him 2 pairs for N and I. Her preschool pick up was right around the time the entire school was out looking, so we were able to join D's class for viewing enjoyment. Hurrah!
The most surprising part to me was all the crescent shaped shadows.
N and I helped with the neighbor's puppy one day. Here the dogs are waiting for a milk bone.
There was a pirate invasion!
And gorgeous sunsets (K is riding her bike a lot more this school year).
K's birthday present made me cry tears of joy. She may never know how much her gift meant to me. It was the best present in the entire world K could have given me.
And M's notebook she handmade me was sweet too. D made me breakfast and Hubby gave me a watch to replace the one I broke at Cub Scout camp in July. It was perfection too. I felt very loved!
After picking the children up from school they had the great idea to fly kites in the wind. I felt like the joy of doing something simple together outdoors was a great birthday present too.
After hubby came home we went to Red Robin for a birthday dinner and my mom is doing so much better she felt good enough to come with us. Yay! She's the one that actually did the work on my birthday, right? Below is K's reaction to....
D's first Cub Scout pack meeting went off with a blast. We love the annual water rocket activity.
M and N helped make a new sign for our GS troop this year. They are great helpers!
Lisa, my birthday twin, and I had a belated birthday brunch at a new French restaurant. Remind me to never visit France with food allergies. lol.
Our GS troop is up and running and we are having fun! Starting out with the Making Games Try It is excellent!
