School pictures are here!

Here are a few ‘outtakes’ of this year’s school pictures. With Anna in Kindergarten, we have three full-time students!

Having a stellar 4th grade year so far,
our almost 10-year-old James looking dapper
(and growing up too fast for Mom’s taste!).
I have the same teeth in my old 4th grade picture…

 

Last year was the year of no teeth for Joel, but this year they are coming in! Joel has recently taken up reading chapter books for fun, is the best coloring kid in the house and loves learning multiplication (believe it or not):

 Anna is really enjoying Kindergarten, but speeding ahead in math. She must have some math genes from Grandma… 🙂

There’s our winning lineup for the year!
It will be an interesting school year chopped in half by an ocean and travels far and wide. Katie’s help last spring and this fall are such a fun help for us all! The kids are all working on their French – we’ll see how far they get before we visit! 

I’m so cliche, I admit it – they grow up too fast!
