We had a whirlwind of a summer and were just starting to enjoy some hot weather when the Provo School District decided it was time to go back to school! Someone needs to fix this problem... let the kids go to school during the wet and cold spring, and let them stay home and play in the nice hot summer sun. That's my opinion, at least. But I had to send my kids back to school regardless. I miss them everyday!
Macie is now a big 3rd grader, still in Chinese immersion, and her teachers are Mr. Gao and Mrs. Nelson. So far she loves them! 
Reid has started full days of school now that he is in 1st grade, and his Chinese immersion teachers are Mrs. Thompson and Mrs. Nye. They are great, and he is picking up Chinese very rapidly! His favorite thing to do is play basketball at recess!
Davis started his "big boy" preschool just two days a week, with Mrs. Garrett, and I do a little neighborhood preschool for him on the opposite weekdays. He is a little smartie pants! Check out his fancy-schmancy backpack (it had to have rollers!). We also carpool with Davis's neighbor buddy, Creed. Hooray! I've never had a preschool carpool before, and I love it!
These PJ pals sneak outside to wish Macie and Reid a happy first day of school. Davis didn't start until one week later.
At home, Danny J is teaching ME some things while his brothers and sister are gone. So, I guess you could say that we are ALL back to school.
Here are some video clips of Macie and Reid speaking and singing Chinese!
Reid is performing "Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes," and Macie is demonstrating how to bargain for Chinese goods in a class role play.
