Our little village sits halfway up a giant hill and when you are approaching our house, you can see the GIANT windmills of the wind farm on the top of the hill near the village of Martinshohe. It is still so amazing to see them everywhere and it is hard to even imagine how large they are until you get right up on them. Since the first time I saw them, I knew I wanted to take photos there and we found this location on one of our drives. It is just incredibly beautiful but I can't imagine how difficult it is to get up and down from Martinshohe when it is snowing! Jackson was thrilled to go up there and be right by the windmills -- he thought it was just great and he jumped and jumped around. :)
We also took pictures of my new car, Basil. I love it! It is absolutely my favorite car that I have ever had. :D
So today was our home visit from Jack's new teacher. Here at the DOD schools, the kindergarten classes start the week after all of the other grades and the kindergarten teachers take that week to visit all of the kids at their homes so that they can spend some one on one time with them and let the parents ask questions. I think it is a really neat idea! Jack's teacher this year is Mrs. Pruett and she seems really calm and experienced, which is great! He liked her a lot. Her assistant is Mrs. Lopez and she was very nice too. Mrs. Pruett brought some crayons and had Jack draw a photo of himself and write his name for her and he thought that was fun.
After they left, we went to the base to have lunch with Garry and I went down to the bus office and got Jack's bus pass. I cannot believe that my little baby is going to be riding the bus this year. It is SO scary! The buses here are really crazy-nice though. The DOD school system does not have their own bus fleet, so they use the big plush charter buses. How cool is that? Jack is going to be riding in style! He will meet the bus right at around 7:32 every morning and should get home around 3:15. I can't wait to see how he likes it. :)
