I just got Jackson's first Christmas list of the year... I have been hearing wants but now it's official.  Here it goes:

1) Deblob (not sure what this is??)
2) The Simpsons Season 11 boxed set
3) Wario's (some word I can't read) Shake It
4) iPod Touch (so he can play games, watch YouTube, and play on internet whenever)
5)Mobile Me (he wants a calender on his iTouch)
6)Buckugun (I have no idea what this is or its actual spelling)
7) Lego Batman sets
8) N64
9)Super Mario 64

Jackson's Units

This year Jackson's class will be studying:

-Trees
-Maps
-Communities
-Rocks
-Musicals/Theaters
-Potatoes (this unit a lot about history and migration... potato famine---> people moving to US which will/can lead to other similar stories)
-Insects

The kids love to have 'experts' come talk to them and give presentations ~ so if any of you know anything about or related to any of the topics above and would like to talk to the class or have field trip opportunities let me know and I'll get you in contact with his teacher.

First Day of School



First Day of School... isn't he cute? Took them at home as I didn't want to embarrass him in front of the school.

Of course we went to the fair a few times... this year Jackson experienced his first concert (The Nadas) and enjoyed lots and lots of food. Here are some pics:
