Day 28 – August 20

This is St. Lukes school bus and smiles towards me all week long.
It says; “take a picture of me, take a picture of me”, when we drop Camy off. So today it was time to do so 🙂 The school bus is used for school trips since everybody is dropped off by car. I did however see one mother ride her bike yesterday, dropping off her son.

Day28-01

When we left school this morning these birds walked by.
We know them well since they walk around in our community as well, they are Cranes.

Day28-02 Day28-03

This week we must, no we want to make a decision on what kind of flooring we are going to pick. Will it be: carpet, tiles, laminate or hard wood flooring? So we will bring another visit to Home Depot and Lowe’s.
We now have everything we need to know, now we only need to decide what best fits our budget.

Day28-04

We ordered some Japanese for lunch today, it was delicious!

Day28-05

Today, Camy brought home her first STAR!
When 5 stars are earned she is allowed to wear private clothes, no uniform. Everybody is able to earn 1 star per week when: there is no tardiness, all homework is done, behaved well at lunch.
It is like receiving an award for well behavior and it seems to work here!
