Jeremiah had a great 2nd day of Kindergarten. He even earned a bumblebee, for doing a good deed. Apparently, he saw a little girl in his class crying, so he went over and took her by the hand, offering to help her.

After school he enjoyed his first soccer practice. The kids look so cute running around kicking the ball at this age. His team actually got the concept of no hands in soccer! After soccer, off to computer class. Soon he will be sending emails and surfing the Internet, faster than I can. Jeremiah had a full day and was beat when we finally got home! I bet he'll sleep great tonight.

Today was the big day!! Jeremiah's 1st day of Kindergarten. He was up and ready to go super fast this morning. Ready to be a big kid. Lexi was excited for him too and told him to have fun in Kindergarten.


Walking up to the school, for the beginning of years of learning.....




When I picked him up this afternoon he told me he really liked being a Kindergartner. Tonight, when we were tucking him in to bed he said "I'm almost a grown-up now, right?". Slow down Jeremiah, you are already growing up WAY too fast!!!!!!!! And we are so proud of you!!!!!!

Reach for the clouds Jeremiah!!!!!!!!!!




What an exciting day! This morning, Troy, Jeremiah, and I attended Kindergarten open house. We all we on a scavenger hunt, learning about the classroom and school, then after a short pep talk from the Principal, the parents were sent home, to let the kids get to know each other. Jeremiah had lunch at the school and then we picked him on the playground. He told us he had a good time and can't wait until tomorrow when he gets to go all day.



This evening was Preschool graduation. The kids looked so cute in their cap and gowns! They sang a few cute songs, and then we watched a slide show of pictures of the kids through the years. It was a super special night for Jeremiah. And I made it through it without crying!! Uncle Bryan, Aunt Sarah, and Aunt Mimi all came to celebrate with him.



The songs they sang...

This is My Preschool (You are My Sunshine)

This is my preschool

Lake Dillon Preschool

I had fun here

I learned and played

Soon I'll be in Kindergarten

But don't worry, I'll be okay

Take me to Kindergarten (Take me out to the ballgame)

Take me to kindergarten

Take me to my new school

But me some notebooks and a new backpack

Make sure you pack me a really good snack

Cuz it's bye-bye Lake Dillon Preschool

Thanks for the fun memories!

And it's 1-2-3 ABCs

Aren't you so proud of me?




Dreaming of being a Preschool Graduate!
















Lexi had a special day as well. Not only is she now the oldest Vaille at the preschool, today was her first soccer practice. After running up and down the field a few times, she discovered if she just stays in one place and plays with her hair, the other kids will come back with the ball! Well, she looked super cute, and I guess we will work on the playing soccer part of being on a soccer team.

We spent the day yesterday at the 1st annual Frisco Family Fun Day. There was tons for the kids to do, from bounce castles to train rides. It was a nice sunny day followed by a perfect evening for the 2ND to last sunset at the amplitheater concert.

I can't believe summer is coming to an end, but I guess it will be time to bust off our skis and get out on the hill soon. The other night, Jeremiah told us he wishes it was winter all the time. When we asked why, he said "because I like to eat snow". How the small things in life are the best when you are 5.

Jeremiah starts kindergarten on Wednesday. He is so excited!! We have been counting down the days for 2 weeks now. I can't believe he is starting school. How the years have flown by.........

Nothing goes with barbecue better than corn-on-the cob!!

We spent most of the day today and yesterday at the Dillon Barbecue Challenge. After lots of good food, friends and music, we came home for a short rest, then back to Dillon for the sunset at the amphitheater concert.

The kids spent the weekend with Aunt Mandy and Uncle Mike, while Troy and I enjoyed ourselves at the Keystone Beer and Bluegrass Festival. On Saturday Mandy took them to the kids museum and train ride in Breckenridge. A friend of Mandy's has a horse so on Sunday, Mandy took the kids to see him. Jeremiah and Lexi even got to ride the horse! We all met for a birthday dinner for Grandma on Sunday evening. The kids told us they had a great weekend with Aunt Mimi and Uncle Mike! As soon as we got home from dinner, we were all ready for bed after a nice fun weekend.
