Dallas is in his P.E. clothes because he goes straight to power training first hour so he didn't want to put his school clothes on for the picture.
Dallas is a freshman this year and that just really doesn't seem possible. Where has the time gone? He has power training, office aide, geometry, and all the other required courses. He starts seminary the 2nd trimester. He seems to like it so far. He really loves his last hour class because he says there are 10 of his friends in that class and he loves his teacher. Hopefully she still loves them ALL by the end of the tri. Dallas is also playing football this year and he had his first game last night. He did awesome and he had a touch down and a 2 point conversion. He starts as running back on offense, and he also starts on defense and he plays on special teams and on kick offs. I may have to change that because I don't know if I called them all the right things, but he pretty much played the entire game. He also had an interception. He did get hurt in the last couple minutes so he didn't play then but he feels pretty good this morning. Oh and his team won!
Josh is in 7th grade and has a few of his friends in his classes also. I can't get a lot out of him but he says school is fine. I know he played football on his lunch break so that was probably the best part of the day. He also is playing football and Phil is his offensive coach. They had their first game Wednesday and they won 7-6. It was a close one. He did well and he plays running back and quarterback and he plays all the other things too. They had a few mishaps in the game but they played well for their first one. The parents watching were wondering if there was vaseline or something on the ball. They were having a hard time holding on to it.
Tiana is in the 4th grade and her teacher is Mr. Bitter. This is his first year teaching and Tiana loves him. She is a very social girl and she has alot of friends in her class so hopefully she can keep the talking to a minimum. I know she isn't sitting by her best friend so that should help. She isn't participating in anything right now but wants to start gymnastics so that will probably start next week. She is entertaining and loves to chat and keeps us busy!
Logan is in the 1st grade and has Mrs. Erickson. He has loved the first couple of days and has many friends in his class and has even made a couple of new friends that he has been talking alot about. He is just soaking everything in right now and is fun to listen to. He is playing flag football and Phil is one of his coaches. He had two games this week and did really well. He scored 7 touch downs between the two games. He is loving it and is really fun to watch.
Chase is home with me for now and is probably really bored. He asks quite often how long until the kids get home. He has been very good though and I am glad to have some company. I am currently looking for a job so I told him yesterday he may have to go to day care and after I told him what that was he said he wanted to go so there may come a time this year where he will have some friends around if I get a job. Chase is a joy to have around all day and I can't believe my baby will go to kindergarten next year. I really wish time would slow down a bit. My kids are growing up way to fast. I love them so much and I am so grateful to be their mother.
I hope the kids have a great year and they all learn a lot and have much success in all they do. I love watching them learn and grow and develop their talents.
