Black Dog

Gabriel had homework from school to take home the class pet "The Black Dog". Luckily this class pet doesn't need to be fed or watered! His homework was to show what the Black Dog did while she stayed with our family. Gabriel wanted to show the dog the park by our house. I took the time to bring the camera and was able to get a few fun shots. He journal ed about our activity and told Malachi she could hold the puppy as long as she didn't drool on her fur. I thought a great photo-opp would be to put the dog in the basketball hoop. It's a good thing Cory is so tall, otherwise it would have involved a ladder!

The First Day of School

Late, late, late... But here it is! Gabriel started the 1st grade this year. He rides a bus to school, has choir every Monday, takes karate/gymnastics every Friday, is making friends and doing just beautifully!
