Gratton's first day of first grade is today! Kindergarten was only half day, and he didn't like that they didn't get snack time or lunch! He is happy he will finally be able to eat lunch at school now. Last night he had his back to school night, and he got to see his classroom and meet his teacher. She let them pick out a plush that would be their friend for the first week, and then they will be able to take it home forever. Gratton thought that was just grand, and he picked a little penguin. The teacher gave him a get to know you form to fill out, and he went right to a desk to fill it out. His teacher was happy he went to do it right away.

I took a selfie, because both my daughter and my niece liked my hair that day! It was a throwback to high school, when scrunchy, beach weathered looking hair was super popular. Successful hair day! Gratton made this Easter Egg at school. It is like paint, under plastic. It's pretty cool. A close up of the flower! The boudin pizza calzone we had Friday night. I only got a few bites, because I didn't want to get sick, but it was amazing! Especially that fresh mozzarella! Yum!  Gratton dying Easter Eggs with his cousins! Selfies with Kahlan and Miss Mia. They're so cute! They were fighting over my lap! Playing the Oregon Trail card game with cousins!  Easter Egg Hunt at the Idaho Falls Airport F
