Elliott is officially going to school. Below are some pictures of his first day. We took some pictures under the Red Maple. Elliott is doing very well and tells people everyday that he goes to school all by himself.
Elliott has grown up a ton over the past 6 months. He loves his new teacher and interacts really well. I think his favorite part about school so far is snack time. :)
He only goes to school Monday, Wednesday's and Fridays, so this is a new schedule for him. On the off days he asks why he can't go to school and says that he wants to go that day too. So that makes us feel good that he enjoys going. There is a total of 11 kids in his class.
Funny story... The first day of school the teacher told them to all find a chair or mat in the story corner. Well since Elliott was one of the first kids to the classroom, he chose a chair. The 1st chair in fact. So the second day came and there was a different kid who sat in that 1st chair that day. Elliott came home and said that a kid sat in his chair today.. so we tried to explain to him that there is no assigned chair and that anyone can sit where they want. Well ever since that day, whenever the teacher opens the door for school Elliott makes a beeline to that chair. He doesn't talk about it or make a big deal about it, only Brent and I noticed this... It was pretty cute.

Elliott and his Rocket Bike
Elliott just decided that his Rocket bike is the next best thing. He was not really interesting in riding it in the past, but now he is on it every night of the week. We have all ready taken several Bike rides as a family. Elliott used to ride in the bike trailer, but in his words "riding my bike is way cooler mom"

Silly Face Take 1
To all of you who know Elliott very well, you know that the next few pictures are quite normal for him. For those who do not see Elliott that often, here is just an example of how silly he can be. Elliott is usually pretty shy around people he doesn't know, so be prepared...

Wedding
Hi all, We had a wedding this past weekend in Colfax. We were able to catch up with family and Friends. Here are some pictures from the wedding. There was a lot of little girls for Elliott to play with. He is used to playing with boys at daycare, so I think he found the girls very interesting.

Eke's Camping Trip 2009
Each year, we try to get everyone together for a camping trip up on Grandma and Grandpa Johnson's land. We call it Eke's Hill. This year it just so happened to be on a long weekend of Labor Day. This is probably one of the prettiest places to be. There were so many leaves already changing colors and the sunsets were beautiful. Below you can check out one of the sunset pictures. The weather this weekend was also better then we could have even planned. It was between 75-80 Degrees all weekend and the nights were in the 50's. Not to mention the great campfires we had and the panoramic view of the stars. We did a lot of 4-wheeling and went down many trails. We also drove over to Perch lake and were able to go swimming. To end the evening we always make a trip over to the Wonderspot for dinner.
Below are just a few pictures of our fun weekend. Hope you enjoy.
