First Day of School!

Today was our first day of school! It was anything but smooth too!

Anna woke me up at 6:45 a.m. telling me that Sydney had thrown up in her bed... yeah... that was a lot of fun! So we started school with an on again, off again puker! It made for an interesting day. BUT we got it started! Our timeline is up... their first lessons done... and they got to design their notebook covers so it was all good!

I don't know that I saw Xavier for very long today. I think he pretty much played in his room all day by himself. He was so funny though! He would come out and ask me if it was his turn yet! Unfortunately, that was one thing that had to go today. I did not get his school started with him, but I don't think he minded that much because his trains kept him busy most of the day! He is such a funny little boy!

Sydney is finally starting to feel better. She hasn't gotten sick for over 2 hours now! That is a good sign. She slept most of the day away and got sick in between... poor thing is so tiny that it just makes her look smaller.

Jay and Anna seemed to have a good day despite the many interruptions. We signed Anna up for Upward Cheerleading and Jay for Upward Flag Football today. They are really excited about starting this Saturday. It will prove interesting!

We have decided on going to Central Baptist Church. The kids loved it and they talk about church all week. We went to the contemporary service this Sunday and really liked it. It is a BIG church building but a small sized feeling with the people. We really enjoyed it and everyone made us feel at ease and welcome. We like that they have such a missions oriented church. With my parents being missionaries we felt like this was the place for us. It also brought back good memories from our first church home in the Air Force, Alice Drive Baptist Church.

Slowly, we are getting new neighbors! We had 2 new neighbors move in this weekend. We met one but not the other... sick kids kind of put a damper on things!

However!! I almost forgot! We watched some of our friend's kids on Saturday and then they watched our kids on Sunday. Jerry and I went to see the Harry Potter movie and eat out! It was our first date here! It was a lot of fun. After we went out we hung out with our friends for awhile and then took the kids home and put them to bed! It was WONDERFUL!!

I think that is about it! Hope all is well with everyone!
