We went to Caleb's schools Cheetah Fest Friday night. He had fun with our neighbor Kayla. She is such a good neighbor. Cheetah Fest is mostly just a bunch of lame games that the kids win candy for playing, a few jump houses, and a big silent auction. It was a mad house and I get to go to it for five more years (Yeah!). The kids have fun, but I think they could have done a better job with the games. Most of them sucked. The silent auction was cool. They had tons of stuff and most of it went really cheap. It was kind of like a live e-bay. I won a CMT basket. It had the Broken Bridges movie, a cool CMT t-shirt, and a CMT jacket. I got it for $27. If I would have been paying more attention I could have gotten some more cool stuff free. I guess I can try again next year.

Spirit Week (Go Cheetahs!)

Crazy Day (Sky and Caleb in their crazy outfits)

P.J. Day (I didn't have to dress him this morning)

Spirit Day (Caleb in his Cheetah fest outfit)


This week Caleb's school had spirt week leading up to the big Fall festival (Cheetah Fest). These are some pictures of how he dressed each day. Cheetah Fest is tonight and I will post some pictures tomorrow from it. It is going to be crazy, but it should be fun.

Kindergarten 101!

Caleb had his first day of kindergarten today. Wow! Doesn't time fly. He loved it. His teacher's name is Mrs. Smith. He only went half a day today and then he starts full time on Monday. Their are three kids on our street starting kindergarten and none of them got the same teacher. I think that's a good thing. It is really nice that the school is right behind our house, so we just walked. I think I will walk him in the mornings and let him ride the bus in the afternoons, because Silas will be napping in the afternoons. Caleb also has said that he really wants to ride the bus. I'm so excited and sad at the same time that he is growing up to be such a big boy.

We went to the Williamson County Fair last night with our neighbors Karen and Kayla. Matt and Silas stayed home since he isn't big enough to ride many rides yet. Caleb had a blast. His favorite ride was the big pirate ship. We had to ride it three times. He also liked the fairis wheel, but I don't like it to much. We ate lots of fair food and came home nice and tired. Caleb didn't get up until 10:00 this morning.

To the Lake we go!

We went to my grandparents farm today and picked blackberries. We brought them straight home washed them and made blackberry cobler. I just hope we didn't get any chiggers.
