First day, Second day..onto Third day

First day went great. She got on the bus with 2 daycare friends. All the parents were there to watch as they all got sent off for their first day of school. No tears by the kids...maybe by some parents later on. I was so ready for Tayah to go to school but surprisingly got a little sad when I went to look at the photos we took of the day after she left. She is enjoying it so far and so that is all I care about at the moment.

Here are the photos from the day.

Kindergarten Open House

We had Tayah's Kindergarten Open House last night. We found her classroom, met her teacher, and dropped off her school supplies. Seems that she already knows a couple kids in her class too so it should be a fun year!!

Zoo Camp

A Quick Update...

So it is the last week of SUMMER VACAY. Tayah starts kindergarten next Tuesday. I can't decide if I am happy about this or sad. Maybe a little of both. Check back on that thought next week.

This week Tayah is spending her afternoons at the Minnesota Zoo Camp. She is helping out on the farm at the zoo. Thanks to Grandma Val for driving her there and back each day. Tayah's passion is anything to do with animals so I can't wait to hear how day 1 went.


So hunting season is approaching, which means single mama. I have decided to get my firearm and hunting safety license. I am working on my hunter course online and test and then I need to show up for a Field day and show them I know how to shoot. Which is scary, cause I really don't. Luckily I have a good teacher who is going to help me (aka. Ben). But my kids are both going to hunt and so I think it would be something nice we all can do. Hopefully I will be turkey hunting next spring.


1st day of school pics to come......

Hilton Head Island, SC

We are a couple weeks back from our trip to South Carolina. We had a great family vacation with the kids. Spent much of our time at the beach, swimming in the ocean, and the pool. We took a day and spent some time in Savannah, Georgia. Here are a few pictures from our trip.
