From the mouth of Maddy

On a classmate (in the first grade)...

"He grew up in Israel, then moved to New York, then to Reading and now he goes to school with me."

The Castle Week 1

It's been about a month since our first week in Jefferson, New Hampshire so it's getting a bit fuzzy, but I will do my best to give the outline. House pictured here. We went up on Sunday with the Adams. Monday to Willey House near Crawford Notch to eat ice cream, feed ducks and do the short trails. Afternoon, the girls and I went to Santa's Village while Mike and Lisa prepared a Mexican feast. Liz drank margaritas with Mike & Lisa. On Tuesday, both families spent the day at Santa's Pillage (as Josie call it). Adams went home mid day. On Wednesday we did the afternoon at Storyland. On Thursday, we went to Weeks park/lodge to see animal show where Maddy led the questioning of the naturalist. Friday, my parents and Maddy's friend Lauren arrived. It was also Maddy's 6th birthday so we celebrated with cake and fireworks. On Saturday, we (with parents) all did a hike at Pinkham Notch to Lost lake. Sunday home, leaving Maddy behind. Hopefully, more phots from Adams and parents to follow.

Castle Week 1 Picures

Day 1 Killam Elementary Reading MA

"I love school. If you want to learn, it's the best place to learn. Killam is the funnest bestest school in the whole of the state of Mass. and Reading and USA." Maddy Feltus

Madalyn had her first day of school. She reported to Room 13, Killam Elementary at 8:15. Note the fashionable outfit. You should see the Carolina blue sneakers. We'll see how long her sentiment expressed above lasts.

Bram - I think that first picture will make a great cover.
