She is excited for first grade. She loves it and I love that I get to go help in her class this year. I don't know if you knew this, but first graders are hilarious. I love seeing her in action and getting to know her friends. And also laughing at how awesome they are without even knowing it. Ray Charles, I mean Hank, is obviously too cool for school right now.Last night, while munching a healthy Lunchable for dinner (what? that's not healthy? hmm- debatable. Not debatable? Fine.), she lost her tooth! It's been loose about a week. She was positively aglow with excitement. She took it today for show and tell. Is that weird? Morbid? A little maybe, but worth it for how cool she thought it was.

Other than that, life is pretty much just rolling along. We did run up to the cabin yesterday after church to take advantage of the fall colors in a photoshoot. We were also hoping to surprise Amy and Ryan (not like when my Mom and Dad surprised my Aunt and Uncle skinny dipping in the hot tub... just regular surprise.) but they had already gone home. We took some fantastic pictures, more on that later.
