First day of school!!

8th and 6th grade!!

3rd grade!!

I woke the boys up at 6:15.  Adam laid on the couch for a few minutes and Eli sat in the rocking chair.  It was raining with thunder and lightening this morning but stopped just before we headed out the door.  We were heading to school around 7:15.  The boys really wanted to get to school early.  I walked Eli to his classroom but we had to wait at the doors a few minutes.  Gage found Eli and they were talking a lot.  I start work at 8:21.  I had to get food ready for Eve (our driver and server) to take over to the preschool. We also make all the food for the preschool.  Then I get the class papers so I can go through and enter all the breakfast sales into the computer.  I then walked around to the classrooms to drop off lunch cards, get the lunch counts and pick up any lunch money.  When I walked into Eli's room he waved and said, "Hi Mommy!" I stopped in the office to check the kitchen mail before heading back to the kitchen.  My job now is to get the fruits and veggies for the cold bar ready.  I cupped up 10 larges cans of pineapple tidbits and also washed apples and celery.  Then I got the "fun (cereal) lunches" ready. Its super hot in this small kitchen.  The elementary schools serves 3 lunches starting at 11:00.  The last lunch is at 12:20.  After the lunches were served I worked on cleaning up and finished dishes.  My shift ends at 1:33 but today I finished around 1:45.  I went home to play with Wyatt for a little while before heading back to school.  I picked up Eli a few minutes early and then headed over to the middle school.  Eli said he had a great day and says his teacher is the nicest teacher he's ever had.  Jacob and Adam had a great first day too.  They gave Jacob the wrong locker combo so he had to get Mr Plicta every time he needed in it.  Near the end of the day they gave him the right number. We headed to Nana and Papa's where I dropped off the boys and then headed to my dentist appointment.  I got done at the dentist after 5:00.  I hurried back to Mom's and we had to leave right away to get to Eli's soccer practice.  Jared met me there and stayed for a little while.  But then he left with Jacob and Adam because he had to get to his park meeting.  Eli was  hot after running around in the heat so we went to Speedway for a large slurpie after practice.  I also got gas and Eli washed all the van windows.  At home we heated up sloppy jo's for a late dinner.
