Here are some pictures of Labor Day.
Nikolay and the kids playing catch early in the morning. I am consciously trying to take more pictures with Nikolay, because I noticed that I hadn't been for a while.
Lock Ridge Park. We had a picnic dinner in the park for our FHE activity. Notice the kissy-face/gonna spit water at you face again, he is actually trying to hold back a laugh. Hey, I take what I can get when it comes to Nikolay and smiling for pictures.
I love this shot of Ariel and Nikolay joking around together. I had said that I needed some pictures of my handsome prince and Ariel was teasing him about being the handsome prince and he was futilely trying to defend his non-princiness. (come on spell check that has got to be a word even if kissy-face isn't).
I could take a million pictures of this smile.
Ariel on the first day of school.
Adriana in front of her bus on the first day of school. I had her ride the bus for the first two days, but it was extremely late (latest being one hour) both picking her up and dropping her off. So now I am driving her. They say that it will get better in a few weeks, and if it does, I may send her on the bus again.
This was Ariel and Adriana on the first day of school 2 years ago. I can't believe how much they have changed.
Now that the "big girls" are in school, I have more time to play with these cuties (spell-check thinks cuties isn't a word either, I guess I'm not playing Scrabble with you Mr. Spellchecker guy!). So, far I am pretty impressed with the public schools here. On the first day Ariel said, "Guess what, we have music class at school. Isn't that awesome!" Yes, it is pretty awesome, and so are the many other specialists that they have at the school.

Yay! Love all the pictures!! The back to school pictures are so fun. Love those. How is Adriana liking Kindy?? I'd like to see more of YOU in these pictures!
Good point of me being not in pictures, I agree. I have been thinking about that lately. I need a tri-pod. Adriana likes Kindergarten, her school's mascot is the bumble bee and she keeps singing a bumble bee song. They have homework every day which is great, but she got way ahead of kindergarten level over the summer with everything that we were doing, so I see kindergarten as more of an entertainment for her than really academically challenging, but we are going to keep up the academics at home.
