The Big Cheese!

School bus alert! Chris and the rest of his kindergarten compatriots got their first official ride on the big yellow cheese yesterday. What a great time! Holly and I even got to tag along for the ride, and we had a blast.
Mom, Hope, and Hope's friend Courtney came over at about 8:15 (they had to keep an eye on The Moo while we were gone), and we took our little posse down to the bus stop a little before 8:30. The bus showed up a few minutes later, and shuttled us off to the school. Once we got to school, we were treated to a great little safety video featuring (I'm not kidding here) ELVIS the Safey Owl! Elvis is apparently the king of good behavior on the school bus, and the kids will see a lot more of him in the first few weeks of school as they get used to being on the bus. We were also treated to donuts, which really made the whole morning from the kids' perspective.
We head back to school next Thursday for open house, then it's the first day of kindergarten on August 10th. I can't even begin to believe that our Little Buddy is already in kindergarted (wistful tear...). Where in the world did the past five years go?!?
