Kimball has been ready for school to start since about half way through summer. He's in 6th grade, which anywhere else would be middle school, but junior high is 7-9th grades here. He has chosen to play trumpet in band, and is trying out for the school basketball team. He has grand aspirations for track in the spring, and plans to do as many activities as possible.
Cameron started 4th grade. His teachers seem fantastic. We're hoping he gets into robotics club at the school. He is on a new bus route this year, so he actually gets home before 4:00 (last year he wouldn't get home until 4:20ish)!
Becca does not enjoy waking up to all the morning activity...she was sleeping until 8 or 9 during the summer. Most mornings she needs a morning nap now and will still (hopefully) take her afternoon nap. Errands are immensely easier with one kid, and one car seat to deal with.
It's still my favorite time of day when the kids get home and I get to hear about their adventures...as long as they're not super cranky when they get home. We're all a little sleep deprived and still trying to figure out the new normal schedule, but so far this school year is going well!
