First Day of Second Grade!
Today was Brian’s first day of second grade! He was pretty excited about it. Poor kiddo had to lug in two huge Lego shopping bags filled with school supplies to donate to the class! Those annual supply lists just keep growing. 🙂 Brian had a hockey practice after school, but first day carpool is always a nightmare, and we weren’t sure how we’d be able to get both kids at the right time. Grandma Sue came to our rescue and picked up Kendall for us, and met us back at our...

Kendall had a splash day today, and debuted her new My Little Pony tankini. Cute! This morning, Brian had “meet the teacher” over at Root, where we got to see his new second grade class. His teacher, Mrs. Steer, seems very nice, and his classroom is just overflowing with books!

We had a fun dinner, and Kendall got to play in the playspace for a bit (Brian...

Today was the annual Fun In The Sun event at Brian’s school. Brandon and I volunteered as before, and ran a little hockey game in one corner of the playground. Everyone kept wanting to be the goalie, especially Brian, but since there were no pads or helmets, Brandon insisted it was only shooting practice. Brian got a sno-cone and had a picnic lunch with us, and then it was back to work for us. Tonight there was a Parent Night Out event at Goddard, so Brian got to enjoy a pizza party...
