Yesterday was picture day at school. We won't get the proofs back from the 'real' photographer for a little while yet, but these are some shots I got at home before chauffeuring our young professor off to school.
Some people home-school their kids. Me, I home-barber mine. It's a good thing I am starting to get better at it, or I would feel bad for charging the wife $10.00 per haircut.
Next week his class goes on a field trip to visit a pumpkin patch. We're pretty stoked about it in my household, as the wife and I will be accompanying as chaperons.
