1st Day of School!

Today is the first day of school!! Riley started 1st grade & Zach started 3rd! (How did that happen?!?)
Jeff & I took the boys to school this morning. Riley wanted us to come, but while Zach didn't tell us he didn't want to be walked in, he didn't act super excited about it either. I'm not too sure he will let us next year. ;0)
Riley was excited to meet his teacher! We left him at his room so we could walk Zach to his room (before he left without us) but when we came back, he looked a little sick. =( But I am sure he had a great day once he saw all of his friends.

Zach went into his room and was so excited to be there, can't you tell?

Yeah, he looks super excited.... ;0) I am sure he will have fun today too though. His teacher is the same teacher he had in 1st grade & we love her!!! Yeah!

So, now it's just Lily & I. We are going to be doing lots of fun stuff together. =)

Field Day & a Play

Last Thursday was Field Day for Zach & Riley.
They had all sorts of games for the kids and then they had a Popsicle break.
After that they had class tug of war games.
It was a fun day!!

I spent most of the afternoon with Riley's class (because I am his Room Parent), but I did get to sneak over and see Zach playing some of the games.

Then on Friday, Lily & I went to watch Zach's class put on plays.

They have been working on them for awhile now.

They put on 4 plays: "The Three Billy Goats Gruff", "Jackie & the Beanstalk", "Goldilocks and the Three Bears", and "The Little Red Hen".

Zach was the narrator for "The Three Billy Goats Gruff".

He made a narrator sign and a mustache for his costume. =)

He did a GREAT job!!!

Then he got to be Papa Bear in "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" because the boy who was supposed to play him was sick.

So Zach was the stand-in.

He got to wear his mustache & the bear ears the other boy made.

Even though it was his first time to do this play, I think he did a pretty good job. =)

We have lots of stuff for next week too, since it's the last week of school.

There are only 3 1/2 days of school left!
