What They've Learned in School....

Ok, so everyday when Egan gets home from school we ask him, "So what did you learn in school today?" And he says what I'm sure most kids say, (I know I did) "Nothing"

Well, now I know better..

This morning after dropping off Evelyn at Preschoool, Egan started singing this song in the car on the way to his school. I've never heard before and it is just about the cutest thing on the planet. I begged him tonight to sing it for me again on camera so I can watch him sing it whenever I want. I figured I would share it with all of you too.

Thank you to Egan's teachers for teaching him this adorable song!

Evelyn  of course wanted to be the star as well, so we had her sing her favorite song.... so cute that she puts the two songs together.

First Day of School

Today Egan started Kindergarten

 I admit I shed some tears this morning.. but his excitement permeated the house. at 6:30 he knocked on our door. "Is it time to go to school yet?"

I found some deals at Old Navy and Ross last weekend, he's dressed so cute and slick.

He is so Big!

I got his Leather Jacket on a steal. He loves it, and I have to say, I do too! His shoes have his favorite thing on them right now... "Stwoom Twoopows fwom Staw Wahs" (Storm Troopers from Star Wars)

He's got his Spider man backpack, and inside is his lunch. I completely forgot about getting him a lunch pail and lunch supplies for school, so this morning I scrambled to make him pb and j, (luckily his favorite) some cut up large carrots, and fruit snacks (used normally for bribes). I put it all in a big red lunch sack that the red cross gave us with their logo on it one time... poor kid. Luckily he's still too young to be embarrassed.. I think. I ran to the store after dropping him off today.... tomorrow his lunch will be a bit cooler. :)

We live close enough to the school that we will walk everyday..

Egan and Evelyn all ready for our walk to school

Evelyn Loves her new coat too. Thanks Aunti Olivia for picking this slick number out.

Gotta love cute kids!

Burt Family Reunion.. babies babies babies!

August has completely flown by and I have neglected our poor blog. Oops :)

Every other year my mother's family meets together and we have a grand old time with all our cousins and aunts and uncles. This year we met up in Sequim WA, way way way north.. as close as you can get to Canada, on the other side of the water. Here are just a few pictures of the event.

Egan Loved the water and fishing with Grandpa!

My Brother "Uncle Cameron" to the Kids and cousin Solomon... Too Cool to hold still for a clear picture. Guess this one will have to do. :)

There were babies galore at the reunion.... Sister Harmony, Cousins Janina and Milly with their little ones.

Harmony's Baby Luminous... that's right, Luminous.. its growing on me and fits her well. We call her LuLu for short. She sang the entire reunion. Takes after her mama. Cuteness.

Janina's Baby Marshall fell in love with Lulu.. they played and laughed at each other every time they were close.

Marshall just about the sweetest natured baby was such a doll! Cuddly and sweet. Here is one of my favorite pics. Janina calls Marshall her Marshmallow... fits perfectly!

Me and My baby... Evelyn. She wore these pink sunglasses the entire time... this way everything is pink!

We visited with much more wonderful family than the pictures I took... I neglected my camera... but you get the gist. Love reunions. :)
