We got tortoises!  We had the intention of getting turtles of some sort.  We somehow ended up with these guys who will live 50+ years...we've made a lifetime commitment :)

Mom and Dad bought pumpkins for all the kids in my class so Mom came to school the day that we all painted them...the shirt I'm wearing backwards is my smock :)

Rest time after recess.

Kissing "Yoda" good night.

And a little hug....
