First Day of School!

It's hard to believe that we have started another school year! We are at a new school this year, still Lutheran, but new to us. We're excited and a little bit nervous. So far, everyone has been super nice & friendly. It seems they all knew who we were - I'm not sure if that means we were obviously lost or they sent out a newsletter informing everyone of who the new people were! At any rate, we appreciate it. :) One of Lizzie's new classmates even had her over one day in late July so that she would know someone a little bit before the first day of school - so sweet!

Here's my growing-up-too-fast 5th grader in front of "her tree"
that was planted when she was a baby.

Here she is, saying, "hey, I said don't take my picture!" That was Daddy's doing, not mine, as I was trying to respect her desire not to draw attention! :)

it's a 1st day of school tradition

Our industrious 2nd grader wasted NO time getting to work!

Theo couldn't be more excited to go to pre-K!
Our little squirrely guy coloring a picture of a squirrel - how fitting!
We're so blessed to have a wonderful Lutheran school nearby to help reinforce the values & God-focus that we're trying to instill at home. We're so thankful for the faculty & staff there. Here's praying for a wonderful, blessed 2009-2010!
