Camden starts 3rd grade

Yes, the year round schools have started back! Camden started 3rd grade last Friday-July 20th. We are really happy with his teacher and the class. As soon as he was dropped off my duties for the new school year began...asking Target for a donation, getting the fall fundraiser stuff started and of course shopping for those last minute school supplies. I had to go speak to parents at the 1st and 2nd grade open house last night regarding the upcoming fundraiser and tonight I get to do it all over again with the parents of 3rd - 5th graders. I had no clue what I was getting into when I agreed to co-chair fundraising:}

I will post again this weekend because Grace will start kindergarten this Friday the 27th (I don't know why they start a week later) I think I will be the only mom there with bells, finally got both of them out of the house, at least from 8am - 3pm.

Vacation

Ok so the kids and I are into week 2 of our 3 week vacation at Lake Gaston. They are driving me insane-July 20th can't get here soon enough-the start of school. Yes we do year round and I love it so all those whiney parents in Wake County need to just suck it up! Anyways, we have been fishing and swimming, Grace caught her first fish all by herself today-a little bluegill, all the others I have caught and the kids got to reel them but this time Grace did everything all by herself:) Grace looks like she has been in carribean and Camden is catching up to her, me I am burnt...reddish brown is better than stark white anyday!!!

Kellee was here last week and we had a blast catching up and embarrassing my kids while we did the Electric Slide at the 4th of July fireworks. Little do they know that the embarrassment will only get worse from here:) I'll post some pictures soon and fill you in on the start of school.
