Jacob's first day of school & 6th Birthday

Yup, it's catch up time. It isn't that I have any more time on my hands with Barry gone (less actually), but I feel like I have to stay busy or go absolutely MAD! So, catch up time it is!
Jacob's first day of school!
Welcome to full-day kindergarten. He has a sweet teacher and seems to really be enjoying himself. He is learning lots and loves everything they do and learn. He especially loves science. I can't believe all they do for kindergarten.
Here is the big SIX year old boy!

Grandpa Street made a great electric train table and brought it for Jacob's birthday. Jacob had a great time being an engineer all day long - his dream come true! He got to drive Thomas and Gordon all over (sometimes a little crazy too!!)

Here is the GREEN Birthday cake (we made Greg's pistachio cake recipe)

Seriously, isn't he handsome!Face in the cake - only allowed on your birthday.

Is the school system different down there? (September cut off?) Emma is in grade 1 this year and turned 6 in March.

Yes - the cut off for school here is Sept 1st - so jacob missed it by 4 days (his b-day is the 5th) I even talked to the principal and asked if they ever let anyone that close in - he said NOPE! So he is in kindergarten here - would be in 1st grade if we were still up there. Weird!!
