2024-25 School Year Begins!

We're ODD this year: 11th, 9th, and 5th grades! Jeff is very lonely at MMS as Josh braves the world of high schoolers.

It was a great first day in the land of school-goers...a nap and a glass of wine...and an enormous spider in the windmill picture!
 

The Third Week of School

Nessa got used to us being gone all week by standing guard at the front door, Grace took on a Homecoming Decorating job that she didn't really have time for...tears!...after two soccer games on a Saturday we met D&R for a Poker Ride at Riverside...Grace went to Homecoming with Gill, Ellie, Colin, and Eleanor...Abby got an assist!...and Jeff & Ellie hiked Mt. Spokane SANS children. And that praying mantis found my arugula.

First Day of 2023-24 School Year!

10th, 8th, and 4th grades! An EVEN year!

 

Mom, my school pic is LIT!

When Josh left for school on the morning of school picture day, I just asked Josh to wear something solid on his shoulders, rather than his WSU sweatshirt that had two different colors on it--to show off his face, I requested. He said he'd just take his sweatshirt off and wear his solid blue t-shirt.  

When he got home that night, he said, "Mom! My school pic is LIT. Best pic I've ever taken!" He showed me his ID card that they print out right away and I saw him WEARING HAWAIIAN PRINT!  He borrowed Jaluit's jacket and Josh was so excited that they BOTH were wearing the same thing in their student pics.  Head. To. Forehead. Memorable, for sure!  Aren't my kids so good looking?!?
