First week of school!

Caiden's first day of kindergarten was on August 22, 2011. He was so excited to go and start learning new things! The weather is still nice so at least for the next little while we will be walking to school with our neighbor Tajen who is his same age. Caiden has had a hard time adjusting to going to school everyday-good thing he doesn't have all day kindergarten like some kids!! It is definately going to take some getting used to, but I know he likes it and will learn so much!Little Paxton is starting to be a huge mischeif maker! I remember why I have blocked out the toddler phase from my memory! He is constantly opening drawers or getting into my purse or finding everything he is not supposed to! Good thing toddlers are adorable! I watched my neighbors kids one day for her and loaded them up with some sugar before I sent them home!! These kids are so cute and all four of them played very well together. We always joke that the little girl Cassidy is Caiden's girlfriend, and he doesn't deny it!


My friend Stefanie came to visit form New York (she's the one with black hair sitting next to me) and insisted that the old high school gang got together while she was here. We arranged it all via facebook and all of us could come on the same night, which is amazing since that hasn't happened for about ten years. The most sad thing about it is that all of us minus Stefanie still live very close to one another. This was such a fun night to see everyone and share stories of different trials and triumphs that we've all had over the past several years-it was so easy to just relax back into each other's company. The woman on my right is now my neighbor and she was our favorite teacher in high school. She taught us so much more than just lessons at school. I am so lucky to have her right down the street!
