From Matthew

On Monday morning I went to my first day of school. I went to school at Edgewood Kindergarten. It was so much fun. I played at PE my first day, I played some basketball inside PE and I went to the playground for a little bit after I didn't want to play basketball any more.

My teacher is Mrs. Sankey, I love her so much. She teaches me a lot of stuff that I really like, learning and coloring, which sometimes my Mom and Dad really like and here's the best part when I get to go on the playground. And the other best part, when I get to go on the playground and hang on the monkey bars.
I like to play with Jules, Tomas, Kennedi and Breanna. Once I'm done ordering my food, I type in my lunch number on one of those little things like you put the card in only you don't put in a card you only type in a lunch number. You know? Then I take my tray and sit at the table I want to sit at. I sit with a boy named Len, sometimes he sits by me. There are two tables Mrs. Sankey's class can sit at.
Today I went to music class. The music teacher is Mrs. McKibben. There was a song on the radio and she pointed to the group who was supposed to sing and it was real fun music. It was the best fun ever and the whole class was so good for Mrs. McKibben. I played the drums where you sit on the stool and play with a mallet only it was a little drum without a hook to it, not hooked up to the other drum. (foot tapping....demonstration.)
I had a great first week. It was so much fun. It was the best week I ever had.

It's Hot Here!

Matthew and I are enjoying our last few days of summer vacation before school begins next week. He loves to play on the water slides at Splash Beach and especially loves to play under "the cup" which is modeled after an iron forge - I'm sure it's lost on 99.9% of the visitors to the park but I think it's cool...literally. :)
This week Matthew heads to visit Memaw and Papa for a couple days and then we all head to Manchester to visit Granny for the weekend. We're looking forward to seeing some Michigan and California family too!
Thanks for the Spidey towel Aunt Reesy - it's my favorite...:)
