Open Houses, woot for school!

JT had open house at his school. The evening was kicked off as our Awesome Charter School celebrated being named a California Distinguished School again. There was a Super Mex truck, an ice cream man, Milikan's drum line and cub scouts raising the flags. The energy and sense of community overwhelms me sometimes. Crazy awesome!

We wandered through JT's classroom looking at the various projects that they've been working on. We sneaked a peak in each of the 2nd grade classes and know that we're definitely in for dinosaurs.

We are in the process of adjusting to a new teacher. JT's teacher that had been with the class since the first day of school was actually a substitute. We grew to love her very much throughout the year and were very, very sad to see her leave the school when the other teacher returned. We miss Mrs. G lots and  lots but are super lucky to live just a bike ride away from them!

JT was excited to play on the playground even though he'd just been there hours before and was going to be back the next day. Kiddos are so silly. Love him to bits!

HeaBug showed us around her preschool at her own open house the following week. She was so excited for us to come see her school just like we'd seen JT's. We enjoyed face painting, snacks, cotton candy (YUM) and watching our little butterfly girl socialize. She is writing her name on her own, recognizes letters and numbers, holds conversations like a tiny little woman. It actually freaks me out a little... Just a little. haha
