Taylor starts school!

This is a big year for our family, Taylor is 5 and old enough for school! He started Kindergarten this week and I am in shock. He was so excited and very ready to be in school. He could hardly sleep the night before and woke up extra early, wanting chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast. He wasn't nervous or scared, just confident and ready to learn. He is happy because his good friend, Sam is in his class, and they are on the same bus. He looks so grown up.
Emily was sad to see him go and kept asking when she can go to "Taylor's school".
Although she provokes Taylor all day and loves to fight with him, she misses him when he is gone. She had her backpack and special orange tu-tu for her back to school outfit.
Taylor has loved his first 2 days of school, let's hope his enthusiam lasts all year.
Last weekend we did a little hike overlooking Boise. It was a beatiful night and the kids had no much fun. After the hike we let the kids play at Camels Back park until nearly dark.
Isaac loves to be in the swing, he is getting so big!

Hey Danny and Haley,
How are you guys? I found your cute blog from Kristy's blog. Your kids are adorable. Your boy is such a little Danny. I'm sure you hear that a lot. Is it totally crazy that our oldest are in kindergarten now? How quickly time flies by. What have you been up to?

You sure are handsome, Taylor!

Madison loves kindergarten. She always just runs off when she arrives. Hopefully whe will continue to feel this way. My second, Ashley will probably be a different story. Its funny how different my girls' personalities are!!!

Tay- I am so glad you love school! I am liking school, not quite loving it.... That's cute Emily misses him, is the fighting decreasing? (jk it is cute and hilarious. like Emily's temper tantrum when I was dropping pieces of ham on her, good times) Brick IS getting even bigger!
