New Groove

I think we've finally gotten into a new groove.  The kindergarten groove that is.  Bryce seems to be enjoying his days at school much more now and we even 'played school' yesterday after school for 1.5hrs. straight!!  Our days seem much busier with almost no 'me time' for me anymore.  I'm slowly getting used to that too!  CeCe is adjusting to her much later naptime (2:30-4:00 now as opposed to 1:15-3:45 for the last 2 years).  She is still loving school and asks everyday if today is Tuesday or Fursday for CeCe's school? On Tuesdays after dropping CeCe off at school I go to volunteer at Bryce's school for a few hours.  Right now we are mainly pulling workbook pages out of workbooks and organizing them for teachers.  Boring work but it helps the teachers out so much.  There are no assistant teachers here.  Crazy, huh?  I would not want to be the only teacher in a Kindergarten classroom with 16 kids! Bryce started soccer practice last Thursday and we think his first game might be this Sat.  We will find out tonight.  They practice every Tues./Thurs. from 6-7.  At first I was not excited about the late start time for practice, but it seems like it is going to work out.  I pack the kids supper and CeCe eats at practice and Bryce eats on the way home.  With it being later Anthony can come!  He meets us there and CeCe and I leave a little early to get her in bed on time and Bryce gets to stay up a little later than normal on those days.  CeCe is still loving her gymnastics class and can be found flipping all over the house and yard lately.  I need to get it on video, she will just flip and flip and flip until she runs into something.  

This weekend our friends The Aldridges invited us to go out on their boat with them.  The weather was PERFECT and we had a great time!  

Here we are on the leisurely drive out.  

And here we are on the crazy, fast, bumpy, windy, wet drive back! We had to hurry back after eating supper at Hemingways to beat the sunset.  We made it but it was a crazy ride!  The kids loved it and giggled almost the whole way.     

Saturday the weather was also perfect so we decided to try out the cable jack that's been on our back patio these last 3 years.  And what do you know, it works?  It was so fun to be able to watch the game outside! (even if the game itself wasn't the greatest).  

 Touchdown Bulldogs!
