First (and Second) Day of School

Monday was the first day of school!
Jon had his moments when he was not as excited but I think when it came time to go, he was excited.
Joey unfortunately started to run a fever on Saturday and threw up on Sunday.  By Monday, the fever was pretty much gone and he had not thrown up in over 24 hours but he still did not feel great so he stayed home.
What a way to start the school year! 
 Jon has Mrs. Garcia and she is really nice.  He said she turned into Mrs. Godzilla on the second day because they would not stop talking. (I do believe that is what she called herself not what he came up with.)

This is what we did at home on the first day of school for a bit of an adventure. Picnic in the shade.

Apple slice smiles!
 Joey after getting home on his first day of school, and the actual second day of school! 
He loved it and had so much to tell me about. His teacher has the 39 Clues books and so he has already borrowed one from her since he read all 3 that he was given in July already. I love that he loves to read!
Mrs. Barentine is his teacher and since she has lots of books I think they will get along really well!
Joey will also be getting his own Ipad from the school. It is part of a technology initiative.  I am interested to see how they will incorporate it into the curriculum. 
It will be a great school year, even if it had a bumpy start.
