Open House

We had a blast at BYOP this past weekend, but before I post those pictures, I need to catch up a bit. We attended the open house at Ella's school last week and Mister had a lot to say about it. You should hear him talk, it is the cutest.thing.ever. He's using sentences and can repeat any word that you say. Most recently, when you call his name, he will respond with, "what."


It was pretty chilly that evening, and even though I encouraged someone to wear a jacket, she choose not to. And then she complained about being cold. Imagine that.

Mister was in awe when he came across the playground. He shouted, "I wanna play!!"



Someone is very proud of her locker.


And her brother was impressed as well, he went inside to check things out.

To find Ella's desk, we had to look at the clues posted. What gave it away was, "If I had a million dollars I would... buy lots of candy." We're so proud.


Grandma and Grandpa came along to check things out, the newly renovated school is really nice. You should see the indoor playground!

Our girl loves, LOVES to read, which really does make us proud.


Ella has the same teacher that she had in kindergarten, thank goodness she likes her!

Mister was really wound up, so Grandma gave him a lollipop. She carries them in her purse at all times and he has, of course, figured this out so he is always asking for a "pop pop." He picks up her purse sometimes, grunts and says, "oh, it's heavy."

Ella's BFF Rachel is not in her class this year, but thankfully she made a new friend. This is her daytime/classroom BFF and Rachel is her after school/evening BFF.

First day of school!

Ya know, it's true what the say, time goes by too quickly. I cannot believe that Goosie started first grade. Me? With a first grader? Aren't I still like 24 or something?

This is her good friend Rachel.

Ahh, look at Miss Rose, I swear she looks more grown up every day.

There are a thousand kids at this bus stop, which is conveniently located directly in front of our home.

Talent Show

Ella participated in the school talent show last evening and did a fabulous job! She sang and danced along with her friends Kennedy, Savannah and Jacey. Craig will be posting video soon.


She was sooooo excited!

Kennedy is a star!

It is hard for us to believe that our once-shy little girl has grown up so much! We are so proud!

This little girl sang Teardrops on my Guitar and did an excellent job so I thought I would post this image.

Happy Halloween!!

Ella was an angel for Halloween this year.




I love this image, she really does look like an angel! And she is!

I volunteered to help with her party at school.

This is her friend Maria.

Getting ready to go trick-or-treating, Jody and Connor.

Connor, Ella and Savannah.

Pumpkin Land

I volunteered to help with Ella's class field trip to Janoski's Pumpkin Land last week. We had the most beautiful day, even though it was pretty warm. I had four children in my group and while they were pretty well behaved, it was still exhausting.

First day of school!

Where did the time go?? My girl? In school? Ridiculous.

We went school clothes shopping yesterday and she was so excited to get ready this morning. She goes in the afternoon and, as of this writing, is still too wound up to tell me about it.

My dear friend Joanne Bartone came over to document the big event.



I love, LOVE this girl.





I'm not sure why Craig just stood there and let this event occur. I personally think he should be addressing this type of behavior immediately.

She hopped on that bus like it was nothing... I had to run after her just to get a quick hug!
