Student of the Month....AGAIN!

Congrats again to my AWESOME kiddo on getting awarded the Student of the Month award for 'Responsibility' at her school. Her teacher wrote how she is always on task, finishing work right away and then helping tutor other kids in her class who are struggling. She is always offering to help her teacher in any way- which Ms Gallagher gladly takes advantage of! She is also acting as the reading buddy for the class helping the other kids with their daily reading. We are still a little unsure of where here love for school and brains are coming from but we are SO PROUD of her and her accomplishments!! Keep it up Macee!
Here we are posing for the award presentation at school- all clad in purple of course! :) I love that her school does this each month for a different character trait that children portray. The principal reads a small segment on each child that their teacher has written about them explaining how the exemplify the character trait of the month and it is displayed int he school all month long. Pretty cool idea to make the kiddos feel good- and parents too!! She got it last year for 'Citizenship' and says she wants to try and get one every year now! :) Good goal Miss Macee - keep up the great work:)

Loving fall weather....

The weather is turning colder here in Boise, but last Sunday it was just beautiful! It was sunny and warm and clear skies all around. We thought we'd go for an afternoon walk and take some pictures in the lovely fall weather. Not too shabby for ourselves and not knwoing how to use our camera very well :) We found a great park with all sorts of fun backgrounds. We LOVE Boise in the fall!!!









And of course we had to go down to the stadium to show some Bronco love!!
