First Day of School
Back to life, back to reality... we returned from Maui and now a few days later we are back at it. Micah is in Orange Cluster, now a big 3rd grader and a leader. Noah is in Yellow Cluster, a 4th grader, with new teachers and curriculum. I feel very blessed to be working at the same school, so I can see them throughout the day. What will this year be like???

Bros
Noah and Micah are so lucky to have one another. Since they are only two years apart they have similar school friends, interests, and experiences. Now don't get me wrong... anyone who knows the boys well can see that they are different in many ways... but it's also nice that they share interests. As we were vacationing, they only had each other to play with... no other cousins or friends nearby. And they got along very well. They talked about their favorite games, they built sandcastles together, and shared shave ice... they even held hands as they walked through the rainforest. It's nice to have a brother and friend, don't you think???

Snorkeling
The boys were able to head to the beach and snorkel everyday. They were so comfortable in the water. We saw some amazing ocean animals and we were lucky enough to see sea turtles! When will we visit the Great Barrier Reef???

Aloha
We made it to Maui. It's such a beautiful place! Although we are staying at the same resort as our last visit, it is much different without their cousins. We went walking down the beach and we enjoyed relaxing mornings and snorkeled filled days. The boys have enjoyed eating their shave ice every morning and we are enjoying all that the island has to offer. What we will do tomorrow???

What's different???
Noah's teeth look great! I can't believe that he's out of his braces! But it's not for too long... now he has a retainer he has to wear! All this work to correct his bite and straighten his teeth has been a lot of work, so we will have to celebrate with a Candy Party. What type of candy will he choose?
Candy party
Noah has been dreaming about this day.., his candy party! Since he's had braces he wasn't allowed to eat certain candies. He's been waiting for this day to eat marshmallows, jelly beans, licorice, and Mike N Ike's.Noah invited friends over and they had a fun time playing Pie Face and watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. But I think the biggest hit was Micah's school project: The Claw Game. The Claw Game was filled with Push Pops, See's Lollipops, gum, and Spray Candy! The kids loved playing the game and they had a great time. When will Noah get his retainer???
