End of summer - Back to School

We had just a few days of summer left when we got back from vacation. Thankfully I planned ahead and did all our back-to-school shopping before we left so we wouldn't have to waste time doing that. Plus I hate shopping in crowds. 

 Brennan loved his break dancing class this summer! He was really sad when it ended. 



He had the most awesome teacher! He also took art, which he enjoyed. 

Tyler took graffiti art (this was his final project in that class), advanced art and drama. Graffiti art was his favorite!! Dallin also took drama. We really love those free classes at PRYAF, but we just get too busy with school, sports and music, and we had to take a break this fall.

 First day of school!                                       Spencer is in 10th grade this year.

Middle school: Tyler (8th) and Dallin (6th)         Elementary school: Brennan (3rd) & Levi (K)

It's still hard for me to believe I only have two in elementary school this year! Brennan has Ms. Yarborough, and Levi has Mrs. Berry. We love both of these teachers!!!

I drive Tyler, Dallin and Peter to middle school every day, which I really enjoy, and Kristen drives them home. We were greeted by a Leopard on the first day of school. Dallin was nervous about starting middle school, but he quickly got used to it. He likes all his teachers, and he earned straight A's his first semester!


A couple weeks after school started, Chloe started preschool! She goes to Bearkittens at the high school twice a week, which is where her older brothers went. She was SO excited! 

She was a little shy and nervous when I dropped her off the first few times, but now she is a pro and can't wait to go. Her best friend is also named Chloe.



Another new thing this year is that Spencer is taking band. He plays saxophone for marching band and just started playing the bassoon for concert band. He loves learning new instruments. Things are calming down now that cross country and marching band are over - he was so busy!! Life sure switches gears fast when school starts. We are all excited about being off all next week for Thanksgiving!
