August 17-23, 2008

On Monday, since it was the last real day of Kelsy's summer, we went to Trafalga as a family. We played a round of minature golf. We did the inside course. It was really cool. They've changed the inside course since we were last there. Now it has black light and is decorated to be an undersea theme. Kelsy got 3 holes in one.
Tuesday was the open house for school. Kelsy got her schedule and we met her teachers. They've changed things a little this year. Instead of having AB days they are doing terms. So for the whole first term she will have the same rotation. She starts out in Social Studies with Mrs. Bird (40 minutes) then she goes to Math Enrichment with Mrs. Makin (40 min) then Art/Music with Miss Smith (40 min). After the rotation she has math for 90 min with Mr. Bird (during which time they have their lunch time) then for the rest of the day she goes to Mrs. Clark for Language Arts. Kelsy was so happy to Mrs. Clark because she is Sadie's mom and she knows her already.
Wednesday was Kelsy's first day of 4th grade at Brookside Elementary. She was nervous at first, but when I picked her up that afternoon she said she'd had a great day.
On Friday, after school, Stacy and I picked Kelsy up and we had a girls night out. We went to the movie Mamma Mia! then out for dinner. All three of us love the music of ABBA and sang along with the movie.
On Saturday we spent the early afternoon canning beans from the garden. Then Eric went up to my parents to help Dad finish putting in the new dishwasher and disposal.
