A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court

Ryvre made his dramatic debut as King Arthur.  Nana, Papa, Granny, and Aunt Nancy all came to see him.  We're very proud!

New Hair, New Glasses

Ryvre's 10th Birthday

Due to the loss of our beloved Great-Great-Granny, Ryvre's birthday was pushed back a week.  We had a small party with my parents and Dale's mom.

Ember's 6th Birthday

Parent-Teacher Conferences

I'll be honest: i was really worried how this would go.  But it was fine.  All of the kids are making As and Bs, none of them has any behavior problems, and all of their teachers think they're adjusting well to school and making friends.

*whew*

Glasses

Figured out Ember's headaches: she needed glasses!  Her vision is 20/30 in one eye and 20/70-80 in the other.  Doh!

Here she is at the bus stop

Day 5 of Public School.

Yesterday we had a bad case of the Mondays: our first major 5th grade homework and impossible project list was received, one damaged lunchbox was brought home, one concussion was narrowly avoided (i hope!) after a nasty collision on the playground, and one kid came home sick.

I'm hoping today is better. But we have already missed the bus, so i'm not too sure.  Willow is staying home to rest and hopefully get over the headache she's had since yesterday and the minor fever she woke up with.
