First week of school

 Professional photos from the Poulsen family reunion. The Evan/Terisa Gabrielsen family.

 The whole Poulsen clan.

 Grace's message she left on our dresser because I was so sick. Very creative way to spell "death comes unexpectedly" with limited letters;)

 Silly Charlie.

 Visiting the reading nook in Charlie's new classroom on Back to School Night.

 At his new table.

 With his new teacher, Miss Luker.

 Alice with her new teacher, Mrs. Parrish.

 First day of school pics! Charlie, 1st grade.

 Alice, 3rd grade.

 Grace, 7th grade.

 Charlie wrote this cute note to his teacher on the first day. He was so excited!

 Telling about their first day. Charlie was pretty tuckered out.

 Alice was excited.

 Grace was super sick.

 First day of school salmon feast!

 And unicorn ice cream for Charlie!

 My chubby guy:)

 Charlie pulled out his front tooth. He really wanted to be the first kid in his class to lose a tooth this year.

 Danny surprised Charlie by cleaning their room while he was at school. I just couldn't get over how cute and sweet this little boys' room is. It shows exactly what they like right now, and is very much their own. This is Danny's side.

 Charlie's side.

 Sick Grace reading her scriptures.

 Hey!

 Danny has been kind of bored without his older siblings. He's been pretty silly with me though:)

 I set up a homework table separate from the dinner table so I don't have to kick the kids off when I'm ready to set the table for dinner.

 We ordered a 15-inch fruit bowl!

 It actually holds most of  my fruit without spilling over onto the counter!

 Charlie's reading time.

 Brother love.

 Danny and Rose playing in the backyard.

 Cass.

 Rose's pigtails.

 She may have gotten her shorts wet going down the slide.

 Cutie!

 Grace has been pretty sick all week.

 Chopping up the big branch that fell from the neighbors' tree with Paul's new reciprocating saw.

 Reading.

 I guess Danny made this during church when I was too sick to go.

 Paul/Danny's home church lesson on obstacles.

 Grace's junior high open house.

 With her two friends from the neighborhood.

 Go eagles!

 Alice's chalk tulip.

 Charlie and Alice collaborated on this chalk unicorn.

 Paul read this to the kids the night before school started and we were both in tears.

 First day for Charlie and Alice.

 Charlie's backpack hooks.

 Alice's.

 Paul had to sit at this table for a couple days this week and tell students some of what his office does.

 All caught up on my family yearbooks!

 Sushi date at Fat Fish.

Cute guy:)
