Tori meets the kindergarten teachers!!

Tori and I went to her school today to meet the kindergarten teachers and for the teachers to evaluate the kids before they placed them in classes.
This was a first for us and apparently the school as well. Some other schools and districts have the kindergartners come in and meet the teachers, see the classrooms and meet some of the kids they will be going to school with before the actual first day.
Tori was sooooo excited about this. She wanted to wear a dress and look pretty.
The teachers took the kids to the classroom and the parents filled out paperwork and then watched parenting movies...it was odd but interesting. Not my way of parenting but oh well, haha.
Needless to say the kids are super excited about school starting and i'm not sure how i will handle having only Max at home with me...whatever will i do, LOL. The house will be so quiet!! Almost...heavenly?!!!
Just over a week and a half but who's counting.....

Balloon kids!

No matter where we go it is pretty common to see some balloon person making balloon animals/people or whatever and OF COURSE our kids are practically on their knees begging for one. I am such a sucker for this since I think balloon animals are pretty cool, especially what they do now a days! Jason on the other hand thinks they are cool but can't stand the fact that, yes they are free but you need to tip the balloon maker and with four kids...hmmm.
We were at diner at On The Border on July 3rd enjoying some yummy Mexican food and the lady came to our table and of course I gave in and let them pick out what balloons they wanted as Jason growled from across the table at me, haha.
Tori picked a really cute pink dragon with purple wings and yellow fire coming out of its mouth, Max chose a puppy (of course), Emm picked an alien with a purple ray gun and Hudson chose an alien with a black ray gun.
They were all happy with their choices even if they only lasted for a day or two...well I think Max's was already untwisted by the ride home!!
