This year, the week started off by going to Open House at Mother's Day Out where Zane and Zander will be going on Thursday mornings. We've been calling it their "school" everytime we drive by there. It is soooo close to our house which will be extremely nice!
They were very excited to go to their school. They never really "explored" the room though. They went from this wooden bead maze...
to color pages. This entertained them the ENTIRE time we were there!
Before we left, we let them play on the playground which they said was a "slide park."
After we left Open House, we went home and played outside while we awaited the arrival of Grandma and Grandpa. Eli's bike has had a flat tire almost all summer, so he opted for this ride....
Mid-week it was time for the class parties for Eli and Emma Kate.

Mid-week it was time for the class parties for Eli and Emma Kate.
The 4th grade party was a swimming party with some other backyard fun included...
When all the boys heard that it was almost time for the party to be over, they scurried to the food table for one last mouth-stuffing....
Just before leaving, we did a class pic of everyone who was there.
The next day was the 2nd Grade party. It was a picnic at a local park.
Emma Kate enjoyed playing with her friends whom she hadn't seen all summer!
The week ended with Back-to-School night for the parents. Eli snapped this picture of me and Philip before we headed to our meeting.

This parent meeting is so good each year, and this year did not disappoint! I'm always challenged at what I need to be doing better as well as encouraged by the other parents and administration at our school. It is such a great feeling to be partnering with other families who want to raise their children to be "abnormal" from what the world tells us is "normal!"
