Anniversary & School Stuff




Peter & I made it twelve years! HOO RAAH!
We celebrated this year with Grancy & Gramps & Adam. He took some time off work to spend with us this year. It was also Grancy and Gramps 47th Anniversary.
Nathan and Allison have been busy playing with Uncle Adam and have really enjoyed his company.

It's been fairly busy here. Nathan's started first Grade and his teacher believes in homework much to Nathan's disapproval. We basically do homework everyday for 1-1.5 hours then flashcards in the tub at night. At first it started off pretty bad but Nathan's getting the hang of it now and coming to the realization that he's got the next 16 years or so of this to come.
He's been riding the bus home from school and that's working out good for him. Also got his first weekly report from school made 100 and 97 on two tests and excellent behavior report. The only reason he got a 97 was for his poor writing skills (she takes off for sloppiness) We're working on that part. So I guess I've been losing sleep for nothing. I was so worried about him starting first grade I just thought that he'd struggle more than he has. He's got a nack for making me think he doesn't' know anything when he really does. He tries hard to act like he's not listening.
