The coolest (and only one I could find) T-rex backpack!

Swensen, Plunkett, Juhl

Thanks to Ma Jo and Grandpa for the send off and the photo op:)

Out the Door!

Breakfast

Send off!

Well, I didn't take any pictures, but Rain's party last night was great! Upon his request, we had tacos, pizza, egg rolls and sesame chicken:) Pappy, Babydoll and Onnie were in attendance and we capped it all off with a trip for Jeni's ice cream (lavender wildberry). Good Morning! Rain did a great job this morning with his T-rex backpack and dinosaur lunch bag venturing out into the wild adventures of Kindergarten. He was the second student there and although initially shy, he quickly settled into observing some caterpillars at one of the work tables. The curriculum is student-driven, but Mrs. M has chosen the first unit of inquiry: monarch butterflies (Rain's favorite). Although Finn is distraught that he will not be studying them, Rain assures us he will tell us all about what he learns. Just as I assure you, my readers, to chronicle The Adventures of the Brothers Juhl in School!

Bring on the potlucks!

The K/1 picnic at Whetstone Park of Roses was a success and as the 31st approaches, Rain seems more relaxed and happy about starting school. We met lots of friends from his class and had a blast!

Welcome!

Here is a blog for fans of Rain and Finn to chronicle their first year in school (kindergarten and preschool respectively). Let the good times roll as we celebrate the last days of summer:)
