Standing Tall

Yep, Miss Evelyn can pull herself up. After a while she cries because she doesn't quite know how to get down. We keep on showing her and reminding her that she has a nice soft cloth diaper on so just plop down on your butt.

She also climbs.

School is in Session

First day of school was Monday, August 20th. We attended the Woodriver School Hot Dog Feed the Friday before, where we reconnected with friends and checked out Hannah's first grade classroom and teacher (Ms. Leonard). Hannah was a little dismayed that her classroom was 'different'. On the first day of classes the weather was fine so we biked to school. Evelyn rides in her bike carriage that I pull along behind me.

After finding the classroom, unpacking the backpack, and finding her name at her spot at a table Hannah got to 'work' with a puzzle from the 'quiet activity shelf'. She was so excited. I had a little knot in my stomach since I wouldn't pick her up until 3:30!. Kindergarten was only 1/2 day. Hannah's comment regarding the first day of school was "We had recess three times!" Yes, all is well.

Blueberry Muffins

The Blueberry Muffins won the Kohl Cup Tournament last Saturday beating out ten other teams. They are the champions! The girls worked hard beating a team that was undefeated during the regular season and tournament. The Blueberry Muffins wanted to take those Pink Koolaids down and they did by playing their best.

Here is the victorious team. Their tournament record: Wins 4, Loses 1, and Ties 0. Points scored: 8 and points allowed 5. The Blueberries have an excellent defense. Season record is wins 5, loses 2, and ties 1. The season was a great experience for the kids and parents thanks to excellent coaching by Coach Roy.
