Football Frenzie!!

A few weeks ago, we had a Football Frenzie Coffee. It was so much fun. Coach Clark came and talked to us about rules of football. We played games and laughed.

Here are some wonderful pictures from the night.

GO GATORS!!!

OPEN!

This was so funny! Trenton wanted to open this bottle of water and tried so hard. I thought i had a movie but can't locate it on my camera. The sound effects are priceless.

Flower market

These were the latest flowers purchased at the Flower Market. Thanks to my wonderful step-mom for helping me arrange them so beautifully. She was in heaven. There is just nothing like going to the flower market.

This arrangment was $3.00 and the below was $3 for the

lillies and $2 for the roses for a total of $5.00

Here is our little man in his first game of the season.

Oops...two more fresh market pics

This is the jar of honey we bought. We had some this morning with our biscuits and sausage.

It was so good and tasted so fresh.

This is the Korean melon we bought. It tastes a lot like honey dew, sweet, and you eat the seeds. I will post a picture of the inside this evening.

Nanny Glenda and Papa Don visit Korea

Papa Don and Nanny Glenda arrived on Friday, Sept 12. First thing Saturday morning, the boys began massaging Papa Don, Korean style.

For dinner we went out for traditional bolgogi. These are all the sides that come with the meal. Yesterday we went to the 4-9 market, which is held on any day that ends in a four or nine. it was a treat to see. This is a root for sale. I bought some local honey and Korean melon This is a kimshi stand with a lot of different types to choose from. Mushrooms...

Fresh fish... more kimshi...and bean paste cakes. This morning, this is what I found when I came down the stairs. Too sweet. More posts to follow.

Game Day!!

In our house, on game day we all wear our jerseys and do the Gator Chomp.

Here are the boys doing it best.

Trenton Puddle Jumping; A favorite past time

As we were waiting for Dalton to finish his first day of kindergarten, we did some puddle jumping. This has become a favorite past time for all of us.

The two videos below show how much fun Trenton has playing in the puddles...Well, the second one might not have been too funny to him, but it was to me. I am still laughing. Needless to say, he wasn't hurt, just mad that he fell and got wet.

Dalton's work for this week

Here are three samples of the work Dalton did this week.

They are working on the color red and letter Aa.

The Third day of School...

It's getting easier and easier for Dalton to go to school. Yesterday he told me he was a little worried. When I asked him about what, he didn't know. I think it's just not knowing what each day has to bring.

Each morning, we take the kids to the kindergarten play ground and Dalton is not so sure of it in the mornings. Thursday morning he prayed that "God would get us to school just in time for line up." We were right on time. Thanks, God! Wednesday afternoon he told me he wanted to be right on time every morning. So that is now our mission, to be at school right at 7:55.

Below are two pictures showing Dalton lining up and he is following right in his mama's footsteps; being the helper. In the first picture, he is standing right next to Ms. Lowder, and the second pic. he is waiting for all the kids to get in line so they can go in.

Dalton's class has Spanish every day and specials which are PE, art, music, and Korean Culture which he rotates through every fourth day. He really seems to enjoy himself. He brought some work home yesterday I was so so porud!

Dalton's First Day of School!

I just can't believe this day has come and gone. Dalton had a wonderful first day of kindergarten. He said that it was a "little boring" because there was a lot of talking and not much playing. I guess that is what happens when you go to an open play preschool setting.

Trenton was excited for Dalton but was so ready for him to come home.

He asked about Dalton a dozen times throughout the day. We're on our way!! Not the best weather for the first day of school.

Waiting for Miss Lowder. Have a fun day! Here he comes... A celebratory first day of school ice cream cone.
