Last Day of Summer/First Day of School

Since most of the schools in the area started back on Monday, August 25th, we decided to enjoy Nikolas last day of summer with a trip to the zoo. The hippo was on the top of Nik's to-see list.

We got to see a roadrunner in the Fin and Feathers exhibit...the roadrunner is the school mascot of Nik's new school.

After leaving the zoo, we stopped at Cold Stone Creamery for a last day of summer treat.

Tuesday morning was Nik's first day of Kindergarten. Here is outside of our house...

and standing in line with his class (and waiting for his friend Nathan to show up).

Nik hasn't enjoyed school too much so far ("Kindergarten is boring."). His teacher missed the first week due to a death in the family. Hopefully, when she returns tomorrow his attitude will improve.
