When we went to Disneyland

Just before Thanksgiving of '07, we went to Disneyland with some friends from school. So much fun! We went to a Pirate dinner, and everyone got to be involved. That was an absolute riot. Definitely worth the money. I'd go again in a hearbeat. The kids were just in awe. They also got to go through the Jedi training. Worth the wait. Kids under 12 are allowed and the actors are awesome. Great photo op. We'll go back to the "Happiest Place on Earth" soon.

Travis is a Cub Scout...

Here's a couple of photos of Travis. He has joined Cub Scouts and is a wolf cub. He absolutely loves it. He participated in a popcorn sales fundraiser. He is going to be building a Pinewood derby race car. He is also getting to opportunity to learn how to speak in front of crowds at the Pack meetings. So cute!!

What we're up to!

Samantha and Travis are getting so old! It makes me feel ancient....

Samantha is 10 years old and in the fifth grade. This is most likely the last year at the school that she has gone to since Kindergarten. Next year she will probably be going to Twin Hills Middle school, which is now a charter. Funny thing is that Jason went there for 6th, 7th and 8th grade too! Sammy is doing really well in school and loves the teachers that she has had at Piner elementary. She gets just about straight A's, which is more than I could ever say for her parents. I don't know where she gets it from. She got Jason's math brain and my english/spelling brain...

Travis is 7 years old and in the second grade. He has a lot of friends at Piner and is one of the brighter kids in his class. We know he's smart but it's not hard to say with the class he has. Next year will probably find him at Apple Blossom elementary school. Fortunately for both of the kids, the new school is in the district they play soccer in. They'll already know a lot of the kids at school.
