Reya's New School

So Reya of course had to start at a new school and I was probly more anxious than she was, but she is doing great!  She loves riding the bus and it seems she is making some friends.  It's a bit of a long day for her.  She gets on the bus by 7:50 in the morning and is home around 4:30.  We are all still adjusting to how tired she is, but she's getting there.  We decided not to put Kade in preschool due to the cost, and I'm hoping to work with him myself at home.  It hasn't seemed to bother him much though.  But here are some pics from her first day of school.
Her first day outfit!
Here she is all ready to go...it was a bit cool out. School started the day after Labor Day.
Zane is excited to see the Bus!
Kade is just excited!
Here they are all together waiting for the bus.  
And you might ask yourself...where is Cole?  You can see Jamey in the back ground and I'm taking the picture...yeah he's probly still inside by himself in his highchair...devouring his banana!  

So they had an open house at Reya's school a couple days after school started so we went to see her classroom and meet her teacher.  The boys really enjoyed getting to see everything.

Here she is standing next to her seat at the table
She loved showing the boys all the books
She declared this to be her favorite part of the playground

Here they are in front of the school
There's Cole! Poor guy gets left out of most everything!

A visit from Nana and Papa

Nana and Papa came for a visit over Labor Day weekend and we had a great time!

Here is Papa trying to rest...but not getting much!
And here's one with Eddy!!!
We decided to go check out this giant Christmas store called "Bronners" and it was fun...LOTS of Christmas stuff...and every type of ornament you can think of.  Here are the kids checking out the ornaments...if only I had a $1 for every time we had to say "don't touch just look"!!!
And on the way home, we stopped at a McDonalds with a play area.  
Here is Reya with Ronald
We couldn't resist snapping a photo of Jamey and Papa playing the kids video game
 My sweet Happy Cole! (it must have been the french fries!)

We decided to buy a new grill and here is Jamey using it for the first time! And teaching Kade the ropes!
And I caught Cole climbing the stairs...he's, of course, a pro now!
Now that we are less than 3 hours from them, we know we will get to see them a lot more often...which we are very much looking forward to!

New Adventures

So we've been finding lots of new things to do and see here in our new State!  There are quite a few parks and playgrounds that we have discovered.  Here is one of their favorites.






And here are some silly pics for you!

I'm not real sure how to label this one!

Zane putting on the charm!

My sweet baby!
