First: Day of School, Football Game, cookies



School arrived! Everyone around here was pretty excited. They all liked their classes and had a good day. Elisabeth was happy she had three recesses and was excited about lunch at school. Darci was happy she had her own desk and no homework. Davy was glad he got to decorate his journal with motorcycles. Beka was happy to have a locker all to herself. Nicole liked her teachers.
Davy played his first football game on Saturday. The coaches have done a great job helping the kids learn their responsibilities. It was super hot, but they just kept on giving it their all. Davy plays almost the whole time as offensive left tackle, defensive nose guard, and on the punt and kick-off teams. He got a few great tackles, but most of the time kept two or three guys busy at the line so the QB could make good passes.

I took Darci and Elisabeth shopping yesterday to spend their gift cards they got for their birthdays. Darci bought a soccer ball and Elisabeth got playdough which they used to make me these cookies. They are great- no calories!

I'm glad that their first day of school was a success. Sounds like they will have a great year. Thanks for the post on your Grandma's home. It was touching.

Aren't my GRANDchildren the greatest? One problem - they are growing too fast. However, they are growing into wonderful young ladies, and a young man. I enjoyed the story, and pictures, of your visit with your Grandma. You have a rich and faithful heritage.
