When the kids came home yesterday, they had
“happy october”
baskets waiting for them…

{so much for not throwing balls in the house…}

Then we put up the Halloween decorations today…I loved how excited KJ was…
as we were decorating the “Halloween” tree,
he was so chatty…

“Mom, Halloween is the last day of October.”
“Mom, I just love Halloween.”
“Mom, I love you, too.”
“Mom, I’m going to use this decoration to scare Sela…”

I was one of two parents who took Kiana’s 5th grade class to the Springville Museum of Art today…

for a field trip.

Right now there is an incredible exhibition of Utah illustrators for Children’s Books taking place there…I totally recommend it!

I was the lucky Momma who drove the GIRLS…yes, there are 7 girls in Kiana’s class and 4 boys…that’s it!

one girl missed the field trip today, so there were only 6…

I have to note here: to all my ex-Korean English teachers –
Katie is from Mok-dong!
How cool is that!?!

Sunday night, Dusty said:
“Who wants to camp out on the Balcony with Dad?”
Very quickly, came 3 replies…

“Me!” -Myla
“Me too!” -KJ
“Not me! Mom, Can I sleep with you if Dad’s outside?” -Kiana

Dusty made up very comfy beds out on the balcony for everyone at about 9pm…

By 10pm, the thrill of it all had worn off for KJ and he tip-toed back inside asking me to tuck him into his bed… {Because I was awake – on the computer – digi scrapping}

Right after I tucked KJ into bed I sneaked outside to take a photo –
Within 2 hours,

The excitement of the first day of school was in the air this morning…

Everyone was happy to be awake {except Momma and Papi} and really looking forward to their day. The kids were so excited to be back in uniforms! They looked so cute!

Dusty & I took all the kids to school together, dropped them off, took some pictures and had some errands this morning. At about 10am, I got a phone call from Kiana from school. She needed a digital camera. Evidently, we were the only family who missed the note or request to bring one today because her class was working on a photo essay. How cool & fun does that assignment sound?!?

Back to school shopping: Check! {a bit too much, actually…plus I’m testing out some leak proof stainless steel lunch boxes to see if they’re better than plastic ones.}
Back to school dentist appointments: Check! {No cavities, 2 new retainers for K & M}
Back to school haircuts: Check! {K got her first highlights!}
Back to school NIGHT: Check!

This will be the first time in 4 years that all of our kids are going to be attending the same school. It makes everything so convenient! One stop to drop kids off, one stop to pick them up, one back to school night…

The kids took all their supplies to school tonight and loaded up their desks.
