The Little Mermaid

In August we went to see The Little Mermaid at Tuacahn in St. George with my family.   

 Ready to go, mohawk and all! He insisted his hair be done this way.

Enjoying the show.  It was wonderful!  I love shows out at Tuacahn. They are always enjoyable, but I have to say this was definitely at the top of my list!
Carter even loved it. He was intrigued the whole time and didn't want to leave when it was over.
Thanks mom and dad!

2-wheeler

 

We have been working with Carter for a while on riding a 2-wheeler.  He would always get frustrated and give up.  I told him when he was ready, it would come.  Sure enough, the other day he hopped on and took off. Much to even his own surprise! Needless to say, he was thrilled!  He hardly gets off of it, only to sleep.  Its fun to watch him. Way to go buddy!

First Day's

 

Elli had her first day of 3rd grade last week.  She got the teacher she wanted and was very excited. Her biggest concern was deciding on an outfit for the first day! 

Carter started Kindergarten this week. He was excited but then got nervous once we got there.  There were a few tears and he didn't want us to leave, but once we picked him up he was happy. Day 2 was the same. By day 3 I had my friend take him and so we bypassed that drama!  

My kids have great teachers and a great school.  My complaint is that there are 36 kids in Elli's class!  That is just not right.  I guess I have an extra issue with this topic from my education.  It is very frustrating.  I am glad they are happy, close to home, and learning!
