Dennie Kids: August 26, 2010

Highlights from today: (click here for pictures)

  • School day for all of the Dennie kids-we again were able to eat breakfast around the table (at least we did in shifts)
  • Graham didn’t do as well today when Dad dropped him off at school-back to the old screaming routine!
  • Reagan said that she wanted to go to Anderson’s room first, but Anderson hung around at the door long enough that Reagan said that she was just going on to her class
  • Mom picked up the big ones and then we ran to Kroger to do a little shopping-the kids couldn’t believe that Mom let them buy cookies and crackers when they asked (it helped that they were on sale)
  • Picking up the little ones and Anderson’s routine is to run to the door at Calvary and then wait on Mom.  He didn’t wait today-needless to say when Mom saw that he was outside, he got in to a little bit of trouble (actually alot)
  • Mom surprising everyone with a trip to the zoo.  The weather was perfect so we couldn’t stay away.  The highlights included watching the fish swim and splash-they splashed the water once and it scared Reagan and she just screamed.  Then we saw the elephants doing their exercises-they walked, rolled the ball and rang a bell.  Graham just kept backing up the closer they came to the fence.  Next was the giraffes who were having a fight-they kept head butting each other and pushing on each other.  Anderson was so intrigued by this that he just sat down and watched the excitement.  After walking through the reptile house we went to the car
  • Hanging around the house and then eating supper before going to the store again.  Our Kroger is moving next door so stuff is on sale and it is just weird walking around a semi empty store.  After the store, everyone have a bowl ice cream before bed!
