Back to Animal School

After a summer hiatus, Geo has restarted his "animal school." It may just be a gigantic hoax to get Mommy to buy him school supplies (which he loves), but it sure is cute!

Here is a welcome letter he made for his cats, named Cris 1 and Cris 2, who are new students. (Previously, the school was limited to his owls.)

"ANIMAL SCHOOL. Welcome to Animal School! This is your first week: Animal School is evrey other weekend. Mr. G is your teacher! Have a fun time!"

And here is an evaluation form he made for his new students:

"To: Mr. G (Mister George). From: ______.
How was Animal School?
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
How many stars? Circle them (There are 15)
Great ⃞  Good ⃞  Love ⃞  Like ⃞   OK ⃞  Not Good ⃞  Bad ⃞
Put a ✓ in the box of what you think it is.
How much do you like it?"

95 theses?

George loves to leave little notes lying around (either a symptom or a cause of loving Post-It Notes). Here is a note Mommy found on her bedside table this afternoon:

"Mommy: I relly hate that Henry has to yell at me when I go in his room. He could just talk, not yell. He atcs like its a palase and he onws it. I was just sliping a note into his room."

Here is the note he was trying to leave in Henry's room:

"Henry: The drawer next to my craft kit is a pencel tradeing place. Put dull pencels at the top. Trade them for sharp."

Yellowstone

Mommy loves a good road trip, especially when National Parks are involved. So off she dragged us to Yellowstone over Labor Day weekend to gawk at wildlife and geological wonders.

Buffalo sighting near Old Faithful - Henry used to think buffaloes are the biggest things that exist. They are large for sure, but maybe not bigger than the universe...

Grand Prismatic Spring - luckily, no one fell in (or was pushed)

Contemplating the meaning of life?

Grand Tetons

Planes, trains, and automobiles

In addition to luggage, notebooks, and old credit cards, George is obsessed with all modes of transportation, especially cars and trucks. He loves to point out the different ones he sees ("Lincoln alert!" he says whenever one goes by after Mommy told him you hardly see these anymore). As a reward for being good, Mommy takes him to car dealerships so he can check out the cars. He loves to turn on the emergency blinkers to activate the "dotty arrows" or other turn signals. (Yup, he is still into turn signals!) Mommy thinks he has a future as a car salesman.

Geo has expensive taste

Big trucks are his thing

Definitely not going to settle for a beater when he turns 16
