Week 37 of 52 in 2017

Jackson and Connor:  It was the 1st full week of school and with social events on our calendar along with all of the sports commitments, EVERYONE in the house is exhausted. We are doing our best to adjust to the back to the school routine.

On this day, the boys were excited for Purple Friday so that they could show their support for the Ravens.

And, their morning routine of saying goodbye to Michael may have gotten even better. Besides saying goodbye this week, the boys were instructing him "to go to work and make a lot of money." They have been struggling with the amount of time that they are seeing him and we've explained that we can't do anything if daddy doesn't work so...well said boys.

Week 36 of 52 in 2017

Jackson and Connor:  It was finally time for school to start but not after getting our last jumps off the diving board before the pool closed.  After a fun week adjusting back to school, the week ended with a visit to RFES from Kona Ice.  We will need to figure out  how to adjust to the school routine all over again. Hopefully, bad attitudes will go away sooner than later along with a way to get more sleep to push the grumpies away from all of us.

Week 35 of 52 in 2017

Jackson: It was sneak a peek at the school after a long summer. Even if you asked him, Jackson said yes to being ready to return.  He was a little bummed that Caden had moved away but was excited to have the Maggie's and Andrew and finally Josh Denis. This is after he found his teacher's collection of books.  All smiles because his nose is often stuck in a book.

Connor:  Connor was definitely not ready to return to the school.  He was a little hesitant about having the new teacher as change is not really good for him.  But, finding these boys made all that hesitation disappear.  He is looking forward to a fun 2nd grade. And, as long as Jackson isn't his class, ALL is good in his world.  Connor was not meant to be a twin.
