Heaven help their Teachers!

Especially his! All that awesomeness is going to be hard to contain.

I was thinking Annalyn might be kind of sad about her brothers not being home all day.

I think I might be wrong about that...

Here to the start of another Great Year!

Mother Goose On The Loose

I hate it when I forget the camera and we have to use the cell phones but whatever. We went to Matthew's music program tonight at the school. Both sets of Grandparents where there. The songs were all from nursery rhymes which was fun. The kids took turns playing the xylophone. Here was Matthew's turn.

He is such a character to watch! He kept us all laughing the whole time which made the program watchable.

At one point right in the middle of the program the music teach jumps up and starts heading quickly toward the students looking a bit perturbed. She went to one of the students and made him spit out his gum. We thought for sure she was going for Matthew and I think for a second he did too. It was hilarious.

Safety First

Today I went with Matthew's class to the Safety Fair to help chaperon the kids. Though I only had three kids in my group, there was a crazy amount of other kids and schools there. Thankfully everything went smoothly and the kids got to see and learn a lot.  They especial liked the presentation that the electric company did with power line safety. (think zapping stuff). What an adventure.

Go Green Farley McSheen!

Another week another program. This one was the Second Grade Program. (It is not hard to tell what the views of the music teacher are on the subject of recycling.) With Grandparents in tow we found our seats and were ready for the show. We took up the entire second row.
Tuffer did a great job with his parts. I loved watching him!
They had a lot of songs about recycling. A LOT. It made me wounder if that warm fuzzy feeling I got for watching Tuffer's program was actually related to something bigger, like a large scale warming pattern...HMMMMM? Al Gore would be proud.
Tuffer and the other Kids really did a great job and it was a fun program (even if my chuckling was more related to content then performance). I was just tickled green.
