Big Day Today

Today has several things going for it.
#1: Today is D's birthday!  He is 8 today!!
 He is such a great kid!  I am so lucky to be his mom.  We had dinner at Roundtable Pizza before going to Walmart to pick out a new radio.  Finally back to our house for some cake and ice cream.


K picked out a book light for him and was really excited to help him unwrap it.
D saw these pictures at Deseret Book and asked for them.  Who can refuse that face?
#2:  Today was the first day of school!  Do you think they are excited?
K is at our neighborhood school so she will ride the bus.  I remember her waiting with me to get D on the bus.  That seems like not so long ago and yet a lifetime ago.  Funny how that works.
She hopped right up on the bus.  I barely managed to get a picture before she entirely disappeared.  She's on the top stair right by the bus driver.  My girl is so brave.  She loves adventure and a challenge.  She's going to love school!
Maybe my new favorite picture!
Roy took D to school on his way to work.  He's in the same classroom with the same teacher as last year because his class is a 1st/2nd grade split class.  His teacher is awesome.  He had a great day.  I sent him with a big box of Oreos to hand out for his birthday treat.  D got to go to the front of the class and invite 2 friends to join him while the class sang "Happy Birthday".  He rode home in the carpool.  

#3: Grandma and Grandpa Pyatt arrived today.  They will be here through the weekend because D is getting baptized on Saturday.  It was really special to have them here when D got home from school and for his birthday party.

Like I said, a big and totally AWESOME day!
