A Night At The Bowl



As the end of summer approaches, Momma and Dad decided it might be a fun outing to take the kindergartner to the Hollywood Bowl for a night of movie music. After living in LA for 12 years this was Dad's first trip to the famed Hollywood Bowl whereas Cole had been just weeks earlier as part of his Kinder Camp experience with his P2 class.

John Williams, composer of such classic movie scores as Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Superman, Jaws, ET and of course the reason for our being there... Star Wars, was conducting with a special appearance by James Taylor... what a night. While the first half was beautiful it was a little boring for Cole, who took a bit of a cat nap but after intermission the fun began and Cole lit up when they started playing the main theme from Star Wars (as did his double sided light saber).

A grand evening was had by all and we can't wait to go back. Below is a look back at our wonderful evening out.

Kindergarten - Cole's First Day



After talking about it for the past year and thinking about it for months and counting down the days for the past few weeks... it has finally arrived. Cole's first day of Kindergarten is here. After having met his teacher and some classmates last week at an orientation, Cole has been talking about his new Kindergarten non stop. Asking questions and wondering how it would be different from his years spent at the Sony Child Development Center. Today those questions were answered... Not as much play time but still plenty of fun learning.

We weren't sure how Cole was going to adapt but he was fantastic. Kudos to the Sony CDC folks again for helping shape such a well rounded kid who is ready for his next adventure. He has turned into a leader who is smart, strong and brave. We couldn't be more proud of him.

Tomorrow is day two and we will see where that takes us. But before that, here is a look back on day one.
