1st Day of School

Nate started Preschool with Mrs. Tecia. Same teacher as Hannah had. She is the only person I think I would send my kids to for preschool. She is gifted. She has found her gift to share with others and she does it so incredibly well. I'm so grateful my kids have her.

I think it's worth noting that this is Nate's second change of clothes before he went to school. It is near impossible to keep him clean! or smelling good. :o)

We did Hannah's hair up in curlers the night before her first day. I am in such trouble with this girl. When we were taking them out she kept saying, "Oh, I am so pretty. I love it. I'm so pretty". Seriously? What am I going to do???? She is pretty though, I have to give her that credit. She is beyond excited for school. I think afternoon kindergarten may just kill her because she was ready to go by 9:00 this morning and wasn't leaving until 12:30.

Aaron and I want school to always be exciting! Always something the kids look forward to and work hard at. He gave them each a father's blessing the night before and we chose a theme to focus on for this school year and colored it for Family Home Evening.

Taken from the Book of Mormon in the book of Alma 37:35. It now hangs in Hannah's room where we can all look at it and apply it this year. To top the night off, we each had  a slice of homemade fresh peach pie. I have to master this pie for a ward function coming up so we may be having a lot of pie in the next two weeks so I can get the crust down. It may not look the prettiest, but it is simply divine!

Here's to a great new school year!
