• This was a fun little school day plus it was the first day of Reagan's classes-she has been having a big time at Ouachita for the last few days, but the real stuff started today. Thankfully, she did send me plenty of pictures.
• I know that she had two classes today-one teacher was "very loud, very loud" and the other class will have a lot of reading. Plus she had her work study for a few hours and said that it was going to be an easy job.
• Graham also had his second day of class-this time her class was at church. He drove there just fine-and I actually didn't track him the entire time today.
• Anderson was lucky and didn't have to go to his class today since their syllabus hasn't been sent out. I think that he was pretty happy about not having to even think about school for one more day.
• Around 11, Robby, Campbell, Keaton, and I left to go to Conway. We picked up the new car-this car is for Reagan but Anderson is pushing hard that he be the one to drive it for a good while. We will get it to Reagan once Robby gets the plates and all the things.
• Campbell and Keaton rode with us because after Conway, I was headed to Platos. Keaton found some birthday items for a grandmother to buy for her. Campbell found a pair of shorts, plus I bought each girl one thing-Keaton got a dress, Campbell found a sweatshirt, and even though Reagan wasn't even with us, she ended up with a rain jacket.
• Once we came home, I had a little bit of school work to do with Whitman plus I checked Keaton and Graham's school work. I know it isn't much, but I did realize today that Campbell is already 1/10th finished with her language arts. We have been working hard around here which makes me happy.
• Nonna and Pops came over to see the car this evening, and we even took them on test drive. Then we had our supper-manicotti and homemade rolls. The rolls were pretty good, but I think I have not yet mastered them. As soon as supper was over, I left the house to go and walk with some friends. 
• While I was gone, Robby played Uno with Whitman and most of the other kids. They even played a couple of games before ending for the night. And now it is bedtime for my crew.
