carter - 3rd grade
this week of back to school was a bit different then other years. we got his by hurricane irene right before school started. although it didn't do much damage it did knock out 98% of our towns power. not sure how, but we were one of the few houses that never lost power.
it was a debate whether school would still open on time, but once they got power back, they went ahead with everything as planned. my guess is that while parents where running around trying to figure everything out, the kids could have a safe place to go.
i guess i never realized how many of our friends have well water... no power = no water
our friends that live down the road ended up staying with us while they waited for their power to come back... the kids all got along so good, and my friend love is a kick ass cook, so she made dinner each night. they stayed with us from monday - thursday, and although it wasn't ideal (especially for them) it will be a great memory. i can't imagine my kids every having a sleepover on the first day of school again.
mason - kindergarten
all the kids going off to school...
hadley also started school this year. she is going to the same preschool the boys went to. she just makes the cut off for the 2.9 program. she goes on tues/thurs from 9 - 11:30
the first day of school is poured!!!! so i didn't get too many good pictures. she has also been very shy and timid, and easing into the whole school thing. everyday she gets a little better and more comfortable.
now that we are settled in to our back to school routine, i am hoping to start organizing my house again!!!! and enjoying my trips to target with only child!!! especially since he doesn't ask for anything....
