Our Anniversary

Here are some pictures from Enoch and Angelene's Anniversary. We went to Island Park and West Yellowstone. We were able to go to the Playmill at West. That was so much fun. We saw "See How they Run." It was so funny. We went to fifty's diner to eat. Enoch even had a gluten splurge and ate a burger. Crazy Enoch. That day we climbed well actually drove to the top of the Sawtell Peak and then the next day we went fishing at Upper Coffee Pot. It was really fun. Enoch caught fish too. We loved our anniversary this year. Kaelen seemed to have fun too.

Getting on the Bus


Here are pictures of Rachel walking to the bus stop in the morning before school and a picture of her waiting for the bus.

Jacob seems to enjoy riding the bus to and from school. The other day though when he got off the bus he mentioned that I forgot to send a note to school. I asked what the note was about and he said that I didn't send a note to tell the school that I was supposed to pick him up and drive him home. I guess he didn't want to have to ride the bus that day. This is also a picture of Jacob walking into his classroom.

First Day of School



Rachel and Jacob started school on the 21st of August. It was an exciting day for the both of them. Jacob woke up early that morning yelling "it's the first day of school, it's the first day of school." (Very finding Nemo) It was very cute. He actually went to sleep after that and slept for a while longer. Rachel is in the 4th grade and loves it. Her best friend is in her class. Actually this year both Jacob and Rachel have male teachers. They really like their teachers.

Jacob started Kindergarten. That was a little hard for me. He is so little. It is hard to believe that he is kindergarten. Jacob's teacher has already commented on Jacob not wanting to participate because he is bored. I am sure that he is. He has been reading for over two years now and so learning the alphabet and numbers must be boring for him. He received a booklet that the kids are supposed to have done by the end of the year. There are sixty lessons in the book. Jacob in a week of school has now completed more than half of it. He will have it done next week. He is just too smart.

I am a little sad that the summer is coming to an end but excited for my kids to have a fun year at their schools.
