Gunnar's first day back at school!!

Gunnar is now in all day 4 year old preschool. This differs from last years all day 3 year old preschool in that now he is 4!! LOL. He is also in the Monkey Room which is fitting for this young man :) His teacher is Mrs. Shumaker, she just moved here from Cincinatti with her husband and 3 boys. She has 15 years of experience teaching children so lets hope she can handle Gman!!!!

Here is just Gunnar and then both the boys outside of United on Gunnar's 1st day back.

I don't have any pictures of Gunnar sitting in his classroom because turd bomber wouldn't sit down or stay still!! Good Luck Mrs. Shumaker!! LOL
I did happen to snap some at open house night so here is Gunnar enjoying his Monkey Room!!

This weekend is Labor Day weekend where we will be heading up to La Farge, Wisconsin to go trail riding with our friends Diane, Chip, Nikki, Pepper and Rak. Should be fun with all of the kiddos!!

First day back to school!!!!

August 24th was Hunter's first day back to school!!! He was so excited to finally get back with all of his school buddies. He made a lot of new friends going to camp every day this summer but it is nice to see the old ones too.

Hunter is in the first grade this year at United Community School and has Mrs. Wissink as his teacher, he is really pumped and so is mommy. We have heard great things about her!!

Here he is standing outside of school on the first day back!!! How exciting!

Here he is outside of his classroom, getting ready to meet Mrs. Wissink.

Hunter showing off his new desk!! I am jealous I want to be in first grade!!! It looks so much better and more fun than my office :)


Hope you enjoyed!! Gunnar starts his first day of 4 year old preschool next wednesday! Until then........

Trail Fun Show

We have been sooo busy trail riding, vacationing and working around the house we haven't had much time to blog :( Sorry!! But here is something we did that was worth taking pictures and blogging about for you.

This weekend our trail club put on a Fun Show at McHose Park in Boone. We had events like, egg in spoon, barrels, poles, monkey in a tree, the shovel race, potato sack races and a boot race. I will share some pictures with you of all of this fun. There is a reason we call it a fun show. The boys are pictured with their babysitter Talyn on her pony Dusty.

Enjoy, we sure did!!!
