Today was an exciting day for both boys. Today Dallin went to Mt. Nebo Jr. High for his first day as a 7th grader! The school invites all the 7th graders to school the day before school starts for a day of orientation. They have an assembly then the kids get to practice going from class to class for 10 minute periods before having a pizza lunch and coming home. I think it's a great idea to help those 7th graders with the transition from elementary school to jr high. Dallin admitted that he felt butterflies as he was on the bus heading to school, but he said he felt more prepared for school to start. He was also excited to see one of his best friends in 5 of his classes. Plus, he said that he knew at least two kids in all his classes. I think he's looking forward to a fun first year of jr high.

Dallin surrounded by his friends. What a good group!
The benefit of having a mom with a great memory is that she can sneak into the school before the first day and hide candy and a little note in your locker!
Danny was also excited for today because he got to go meet his teacher. He had originally wanted another teacher, but after meeting his teacher today he was pretty excited that he was in her class. She seems to be really fun and engaging...which is what Danny needs to maintain his attention. I think both my boys are going to have a great school year!
Ms. Provstgaard made Minon hats and cupcakes for all her new students! How fun!!
