First Day of Kindergarten!!

So Luke had his first day of Kindergarten this morning...He was so excited about it last night that he could hardly settle down for bed.

Here he is out in front of the school. It is the oldest school in the district, but I think it is a pretty neat looking building.

Here he is eating breakfast...all his favorite stuff. French toast and chocolate milk. They provide free breakfast to all the students. I thought that was pretty cool!

Playing in the classroom. They didn't do much today. It was just orientation for the parents and students. Think we were only there for about an hour.

Luke wanted to stay longer and play...he will have plenty of time for that. Hopefully he realizes it is a little different than pre-school. Not as much play time and more learning time...lol.

Standing out in front of his classroom. Room number 3.

Tomorrow the real thing starts. We just found out that a boy in his class lives right across the street from us. He was pretty excited to have a new friend close by and a buddy to ride the bus with. Too bad we might only be living in this place a few months before we buy a house and change schools. But it will be nice in the meantime.

Showing off my pearly whites!!!

Well it took awhile, but he finally has some teeth!!! 4 of them so far. He has had them for a little while now, but have just now been able to get a picture of them. I think he looks pretty cute and it looks like he will have a space between his two front teeth. Just like his big brother.

Checking out the new senery!!!

Well we have been in Nampa, ID for almost a month now. We are pretty much totally unpacked besides the few boxes that we are waiting to unpack until we (Lord-willing) buy a house. I am feeling pretty comfortable getting my way around town and learning the area. Sunday afternoon we took a drive to Lake Lowell. It is just outside of Nampa and only about a 10 minute drive. Here are a few pics...it was a beautiful day. (pics are from my cell phone, so they are not the best pics in the world)

Walking along the lake..

Well we made it to Idaho. It has been a busy week and a half since we have been here, but we are starting to feel settled in. Here are a few pics of us in the new apartment. I will post some more when I get some pictures of the rooms all put together.

Big Changes....

Well if you can't tell by the pictures...we are moving. And moving soon....this weekend. Some of you already know this news but other might not, so thought I better get on here and post something before we actually make the move...lol. We are moving to Nampa, ID. Joe has been up there for almost 2 weeks now working and the boys and I have been home hanging out and packing!!!
Joe's work has been terribly slow this year in construction and it has been pretty trying. Joe has been wanting to be able to get out of construction and maybe start a career in something else that is more steady. We have been praying about it for a while and praying about possible making a change. Then Joe got offered a great job in ID and he was so thankful for the opporunity!!! He went up to ID and started working and looking for a place. He found a nice duplex to rent for a few months and then we are hoping to buy a house...Lord-willing. Joe sent me picures of the new place and it looks really cute and it has 3 bedrooms!!! I am so excited to have an extra bedroom. Not really extra, but one more room then we have here..lol. We were going to be in CO till the end of the month, but the landlord said we could move in a week early and I am ready to not be staying by myself anymore!!! So the big move is this weekend!!
So to all you bloggers in CO, so sorry if I didn't get to say goodbye in person, and all you bloggers in ID....we will be seeing you soon!!!!

What a beautiful day...we had a blast!!!

10 months old

So Drew is now 10 months old...He is doing great and is starting to be a busy little boy....He is crawling and pulling up on everything and I am sure over the next couple of month he will be walking...YIKES!!!

Luke and Drew are now officially roommates....Sleeping arrangements have been changing the past few weeks. Some night they sleep in the room together, some night Drew ends up back in our room, and some night we move Luke onto the floor in our room to help Drew sleep better...lol.
The boys love hanging out and playing in the room together...Drew is always crawling down the hallway to check out what Luke is doing and steal his toys. So far Luke like all the attention from Drew and has been sharing his toys well. We'll see how long that last...lol.
Well that is my short update on the boys...
