Intro to Kindergarten


Tonight we had Kindergarten Open House!  A chance to explore the "big school" with parents in tow.  We started off in the library and one by one visited each classroom with a refreshing, compared to the temperature inside the school (HOT!), stop on the playground where it was still hot.  In the classrooms we saw lots of familiar items... Lego's, puzzles, Lincoln Logs, Wedgits, Moving Monkeys, sight words, preschool friends, across the street friends, a globe.. and as Cole pointed out... tissues!  I guess we could have kindergarten right here at home!

I resisted the urge and avoided the abuse from Rob by not taking my camera.. then low and behold there was Kelly!  taking pictures outside the school!  Thankfully I keep my point and shoot in my pocket book at all times for occasions just like these!!  So I got a couple of pictures to document the evening.  Here are Caden and Cole S, proud soon-to-be Kindergartners.

And as we turned to go to the car... pretty!! If only I had my real camera!...  I think I'll be taking a visit down here again... of course I'll need to perfectly plan a thunderstorm moving in.  The Kindergarten is nestled into one of the local apple orchards, and looks out at this historical structure, a beautiful red barn.



And now I will go sit and enjoy the change in air as the rain comes down and the breeze blows in the windows.. ahh!

Would you expect anything less from me? ha! Actually I wouldn't have brought it but I tried to get a photo of Cole after the screening last week and my battery was dead! So it was actually a good thing since then I could get a photo of Cole AND his buddies. :)

Kindergarten sounds like so much fun- I WANT to go!

Oh, and I love your barn picture! I took one of the barn and clouds as well (ha! we are so alike!) but it was while Brendan was telling me we needed to get home so I was rushed and it didn't come out that well. The sky was GORGEOUS last night- we need to escape one summer night and go to Mack's to take some photos.
