1st Day of Kindergarten

Today is the official first day of our new phase of life... having school-aged children! There were no tears (amazingly) only excited nervousness.

Started the morning with a healthy breakfast-- including his vitamins...


Daddy praying for Landon in front of the school

Mountainview Elementary



Waiting in line after yard duty blew whistle

Got his name tag for Room #1

Meeting Mrs. Friedman for the 1st time...
she went through the line and shook all the kid's hands.

Mrs. Friedman giving instructions on what to do when you came inside (find your name on a square and sit down). These were the instructions going through my mind...
BYE! I Love You! Be Good! Follow Directions! Make Good Friends! Remember to put all your belongings in your backpack! Raise your hand! Ask if you need help! Eat your snack before playing on the playground! Stand up for what you know is right!
Oh yea, see you in a few hours! :)


Now, this is what we did while Landon was at school...

Hayley played happily in her jumperoo

Parker got to choose his own movie to watch with complete peace.
AND, we took Naps.

One day down, 185 more to go...

Ok so the things on your mind made me cry...you want to say them all but you only get to say I love you and bye...they grow so fast.

Oh, I so understand and got a little teary. It is a whole new world, and it's hard to believe they grow up so quickly...but this stage is wonderful too. Enjoy Kindergarten...it's very easy comparatively!!!
