Running, Kicking, Pumpkins, & Star Student!

Brant is now playing soccer. He has had just a few games, due to the RAINY weather. He really loves playing and actually does really well. Bryan is helping coach. Brant is playing with most of the same boys that he played with last year. We went one COLD afternoon to the Pumpkin Patch. We didn't get to stay long because Brant was invited to a birthday party. The short amount of time we were there was definitely well spent! Brant's favorite activity was the maze and the cotton. Brylee just liked being pulled in the wagon. The kids had a great time! Brant is having such a great kindergarten year, and to top it off, Brant was chosen as his class's 1st 9 weeks Star Student. This is a BIG deal at New Hope Elementary. Star Students get to eat a special lunch on stage in the cafeteria and the principals announce their names and give out certificates. They also receive treat bags full of goodies. Bryan, his parents, and I all got to attend and take pictures. My parents & Bryan's parents sent Brant balloons with a Wal-Mart gift card & candy attached to celebrate. He, of course, had to spend it that day. He used the money to buy Bakugan - his new obsession. If you had asked me last year if I thought Brant would ever be Star Student, I would have laughed out loud! He has had such a great year - he is doing SUPER, helping others, and keeping green lights! We are so proud of him!
