first day of school

isaac has completed his first day of traditional school.  after 3 years in the wonderful Montessori classroom isaac began first grade at Ashland (a public elementary school about eight blocks from our home).  he had a great day and was full of stories when we picked  him up.  especially good to have kath (Geoff’s mum) here to help with the transition.

here we are having some ice cream to celebrate the end of the first day.

 

and here he is on day two with grandma out the front of Ashland.

grandma’s visit

geoff mum is visiting us from australia for the month of august and as you can imagine, isaac is loving every minute.   sadly, geoff’s dad wasn’t able to come but we are all excited about visiting melbourne in december to celebrate christmas australia-style.

here they are at our favorite orchard picking peaches.

here they are ten pin bowling.

 

and here they are checking out the lexington farmers market…

and our new neighborhood farmers market.

the tooth fairy cometh

friday afternoon…big day here at 262.  isaac lost his first tooth and survived the trauma.  chomping on some mac’n’cheese had the tooth hanging by a thread.  with a twist, geoff popped the peg right out of there.  here’s some video and pics to tell the story.
