School "Kick-Off" Day

We had our official first day of school on Monday, July 30th this year, but we had our "fun kick-off" on Friday, August 3rd, because Daddy was home and life is always more fun with Daddy!

Our first week of school was pretty basic, just getting back into the routine of our day.

On our fun day we did a little bit of "light schooling" and then played Bird Bingo before an early lunch and then heading out for surprises.

Surprise #1:
Christopher Robin in theater! 
We rarely go to the theater, because $$$, but it's always a treat when we splurge!
The movie was clean and adorable and held everyone's attention with the help of big tubs of popcorn.
Surprise #2:
Bowling!
The last use of our summer "Kids Bowl Free" coupons. 
We bowled 2 games.  Zayden was getting pretty worn out by the end but we stuck in there.
Natalee is always our top bowler among the kids when we go!  I wish we lived closer so she could join a kids' league.
Winner winner!!  For both games, I think!  (Zayden and I shared the last two spots on the line up because he was fussy.  I'd tell you those scores are not a true reflection of my bowling ability but...lies. LOL)
This was a great day and a fun way to kick off our first week of school!
