Sean's First Day at Kindergarten

On August 24, 2009, Sean started Kindergarten. The morning before school he was very quiet. Sean kept telling me "but your not going to be there". I had Gramma Ashley watch Dean for me so I could bring him to school the first day. Sean did so good. He gave me a hug and waved at me. I'm so glad that there were no tears from anyone. YEAH!!!

He looks so big with a backpack.

This is Sean after the first day of school has finished.

Yeah, he made it through the first day and he is still smiling! I was so happy when he came home. I can't believe that school starts at 8:30am and does not get out until 2:40pm. What a long day for a 5 year old. The first thing that he said when he came through the door is, "I love school. I didn't know it was going to be like that."

Zoo Trip

Sean wanted to go to the zoo one last time before he had to start school. Gramma Ashley came with us. Sean and Dean had fun "petting" the sting rays. At first, Dean wasn't sure about it but then he liked it. He liked it so much that his entire front of his shirt was covered in water.

There were a few time that Dean almost got in with the sting rays.

While we were watching the giraffes, a "freak" rain started to fall. All of the giraffes starting running around. The boys really enjoyed watching them.

This was just a beautiful bird!

The boys ALWAYS have to brush the goats.

The Towable

The last time that Paul had taken Sean out on the boat to fish, Sean had seen a boat with a towable. We ended up having to buy a towable for the boat because that is all Sean wanted to talk about. As you can see, he LOVED it! They had so much fun on it.
