Alex started First Grade this year, and Genevieve began her second (and final) year of Preschool the week of August 26.
I was surprised to find how easy the transition was this year, since all of us had been thru it once before last year.

A few days before school started, Grandma Carla came out for a quick visit. We had a lot fun (of course!) We drove up to Rocky Mountain National Park one day, and stopped at the Trail Ridge visitors center. Grandma and the kids decided to wait in the back of the car.
...while Dana and I took a quick walk...
In other news, Alex and Genevieve have taken a keen interest in some of my old childhood toys. One that's received a lot of attention is my old Construx set. It was one of my favorites as a kid too! I was sad to find that they stopped making Construx many, many years ago. It's too bad, since mine are rapidly deteriorating with renewed used.

THEY ARE SOOOO CUTE!!!!!!
It looks like Alex might have shed a few tears waiting for the classroom door to open?
After Alex got on the bus, I raced over to meet him at school, but parking was a nightmare, so I didn't meet him as he got off the bus at school. So he was worried about me, but I caught up with him outside his classroom, and all was well again.
