Friday Tyler had freshman orientation at school. It's a half day of school that only freshman attend. They find their locker, classrooms, and meet their teachers all without the other 500 kids in the building. Tyler knew most of his teachers and the new ones he did meet he seemed to enjoy. After school, we drove to Ankeny and had supper with the Smith's before heading to the Iowa State Fair. We walked through some vendor buildings and took in the "people watching" before we attended the concert. We enjoyed our time together as a last blast for summer fun. I'm so happy to be a "cool" mom that he enjoys doing things with. Bribing him with concert tickets doesn't hurt;)
We The Kings performing "Check yes Juliet."
Boys Like Girls performing "The Great Escape." The concert was a great time and an excellent way to end the summer.
After breakfast we hit up Jordan Creek for some last minute school shopping for Tyler and some early fall shopping for Chloe. Tyler and I were the Smith's first overnight guests. They've only been in their house 5 days. It was strange to be in Ankeny and not stay with and see Rich and Andrea. They were out of town. It's nice to have more family to chose from though.
After 2 plus hours of shopping we went back to the Smith's and had lunch. Hollie made smoothies. After Tyler would take a sip he would make noises, then Chloe would mimic. It was quite funny.
