a little {happiness} all around

Yesterday was Riannes first day of Kindergarten. She's SO excited to be able to FINIALLY be able to go to school! She had her backpack on and ready to go the moment she was dressed. She watched morning cartoons in her backpack and even ate lunch with her backpack on. She's truely been ready for this moment for years.

I have Daylon picking Rianne up from school so that they could walk home with eachother every day. I can't tell you how cute it is to see them walking hand in hand all the way home. Turns out that school is still fun even after the first week. Daylon still loves school even though it is tougher for him. I think it's just because we have to get back into the swing of things again... his attention span is zapped after summer.

Since i had the afternoon to myself, Sam and I went shopping. He found these super cute Fisher Price cars and threw them in the cart before i even had a chance to see what they were. I love that they are so little that they fit in his little hands. He spent the afternoon playing with them while the other kids were in school.

Check him out. I just love that he plopped himself down on the carpet and started playing away. He couldn't wait for me to open the package soon enough! I got him a second set for sometime later... i guess Christmas is coming sooner than i expect. And i know he loves them!

I haven't gotten much done in way of scrapping... but i did get this done:

this is the next prompt for This is Me. My FFOTM (favorite friend of the moment) happens to be Lori. Might be a bit lame on my end considering she an internet buddy that i've never met. But she is my best bud right now and i love hanging out with her most nights..... she's my scrappy partner in crime ;-) Now if we just lived closer together, that'd totally make my day!
