This is the drum that Luke can play...

So today was the big day. Dan and Luke hit the open road and headed to CID this morning at 7:45 for the 9 - 12 class. Thankfully Daddy remembered the camera (and humors me with this whole blog thing!) and snapped this pic of the St. Louis arch (on the right) as he was driving across the Mississippi River!
Luke is looking a bit nervous here, but he has his trusty Penguin with him! Dan said that Luke went right into the classroom with Ms. Beth, the Deaf/HOH teacher who comes to our home!
Luke's teacher, Ms. Natalie, agreed to take a few pictures of our big guy during class!!! Thanks to Daddy for asking Luke's teacher and thanks to Luke's teacher for taking the pics!
Notice above that Luke is saying "cheese!"

And finally, here is my favorite one! Maybe b/c of the whole "rockstar" theme we had for his "turn on" party back in April, or the fact that his new big kid bedroom is all rock star themed (more to come on this later!), or the fact that his very favorite song recently is the CID drum song...

This is the drum that Luke can play,
He can play it his own way
Play it fast....
Play it slow....
Make it stop
And make it go!
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la!
I honestly can't wait to get there on Friday!!! With more pics to come! :)
