Friday Five
Day 2 of the school year is in the books. The boys all had a good day today, but I have to say, they were all very appreciative of the weekend. School is exhausting when you've just come from the lazy days of summer.
When Jack came home, he looked especially worn out.
Poor guy!
~~~
Well, the backyard continues to near completion. We only have the facade of the planter wall left to finish. This weekend we'll be re-filling the planter with dirt and hopefully replanting all of our plants. (They will certainly appreciate that!)
~~~
I am especially proud of Shawn today. He has always been on the shy side in the classroom, but today our boy volunteered to go up to the board and answer a question in front of the class! So awesome! I am hoping this is a sign of a very positive year to come!
~~~
Over the summer, the boys were asked to read. We read each night at bedtime for a total of 16 ish hours of reading and managed to finish 8 different books. Jason upped the ante for himself and read an additional 850+ pages on his own! How awesome is that?! In the end, he finished 5 more books on his own and is in the process of reading two more. Way to go, Jay!

We had to reschedule our family pictures we were going to take July to tomorrow. I can't wait to see them, and we haven't even taken them yet! I am not the best at being patient. lol

First Day of School!
Today was the first day of school! They were all excited, and I think all had a relatively good day!
Jack even got to lead the kids into school. :)

Eeking Out the Last Drops of Fun from Summer
Blowing some bubbles in the pool...
And a little lounging around...
These boys are loving the water!
A little horseplay...
