Thankful

Matthew 18:20 "For where two or three come together in My name, there I am."

I am so thankful that I work in a school that has a principal that is bold enough to pray out loud and quote bible versues at an impromtu faculty meeting.

Today, we had some sad news hit the 'creek. It's not "as bad" as it could be and things change in an instant and we are hoping they change for the good....not the bad. But it makes me so unbelievably happy to work along side people that want to pray with each other no matter what religion, etc someone might be.

So as you read this, think about the staff and students here at the 'creek and say a little prayer for us and a sweet young 4th grader who is fighting for his life. We all know he is a fighter and can pull through this, but it is hard to know that a student that you see everyday and smiles no matter what, is in a hospital bed with tubes and and cords connected to him for something he couldn't prevent.

Matthew 19:26- "...and with God, all things are possible."

Back in the swing of things



We had a great and relaxing summer! I didn't really do much blogging and it was nice not to worry about it. (I know you guys were really bummed) haha







Getting ready to go to school. I didn't plan this....he litterally just stoppped and started looking!




Well, we have been in school for 27 days and are finally getting into the swing of things. Landon started going to RCA's pre-school where my mom works. I am really excited that he is going but it has definitely been an ADJUSTMENT! It has been long hard days since he has started. My mom comes to my school and picks him up and takes him with her. He loves getting to ride in "Gigi's Silver Bus"! :) He was a great napper and loved his naps-2 1/2 to 3 hours. But since school has started he is working on only 1 hour a day. So the afternoons are full of M-E-L-T downs and crying. He has gotten better, but I can still tell that the naps are being missed around our place. Early bedtimes are a must for him! He is doing great and really having a good time. Although, when you ask him about he probably won't tell you anything and will pretend that he hates it. But when I catch him on a good day, he will tell me things that make me know he enjoys it! He loves the songs and has learned so many. He is constantly singing them all the time. He loves Mrs. Dyer his teacher and I think it has taken him 27 days to get used to this school stuff too. I don't blame him....he was 3 and his world got rocked and turned upside down when school started. So I keep reminding myself that it will take time....but we/he can get through it and work the kinks out!




He found the playground on the way in!



Looking for his name to hang his stuff!



He found his Gigi!


Since school has started, we have moved from the apartments and it is in a GREAT location. (I don't have to drive to work!) :) It is so nice and we have an extra bedroom so all of Landon's toys are in the play room and he can have a bedroom!! We have a huge yard and an amazing drive way so he can play, play, PLAY! He has loved it so much. We are going on week number two of being there and loving every minute of it! I will post pictures soon!



Ok, quick update. I'll try to get more posts up about our fun adventures!
