Despite its early arrival (August 18!!) the first day of school was anxiously awaited by both girls this year. Catherine started 4th grade and Emma started 2nd grade. Both of them got the teachers they were really hoping for all summer. We were all pleasantly surprised (and relieved.) I was really impressed with both teachers - they each fit our girls' needs and personalities so well. I have high hopes that this will be a great year!
Here we are continuing our first-day-of-school tradition of walking to school with Dad.
The Saturday before school started Catherine spent the afternoon making these badges. She wore one each of the first days. I loved them. :)
Here's Spencer with his carpool buddies going to preschool. He goes to a lady's home in our neighborhood. He still requires some coaxing to actually go, but once he's with his friends, he enjoys it.

Amy, I can't believe I found you! I googled your name and found the London girl blog and then found your link. I've been thinking about you a lot lately and how I haven't seen you in forever. We didn't do swim lessons this year and it seems like that's where I always run into you. Your family is adorable and I see you have four kids too. Check out my blog or email me at ms5@comcast.net. I'd love to get together and do lunch or something sometime. Glad to see you and your family are doing well. Talk to you soon.

How cute are those badges! Isn't it fun when they love school so much? Although it is hard to get back on a schedule, we have all loved that school is back in. I am still trying to adjust to the crazy evenings with dinner, homework, piano, cub scouts, soccer, and then trying to balance that with some play time.
Anyway, cute to see your girls looking so grown up!
