Back To School

It was a strange beginning of the school year.
I found out at the last minute that I would be teaching a third and fourth grade combination class.  That sort of threw me off a bit, but I guess change is good?! :)
Avery started school when Mark and I did, but Annalise had a bit of a delay because of the Kindergarten testing.
Lucky for us, Auntie Robin offered to come up and hang out with Annalise for the few days before she got to start full time. (Don't know what we would have done without Auntie Robin!!!  Seriously!!)

Avery was all set for her first day of FOURTH GRADE.
Wow.  Fourth grade?  Really?
Ok...flashback moment...
Avery's first day of Kindergarten....
 With her baby sister....
And now....

 
Annalise and Auntie Robin had a half day on Friday where the grown-up takes the student for a half day....just to get them used to where they would be on their first solo day Monday.
We were also anxious to find out who her teacher would be!!!

Annalise could have done it on her own.
She is confident and excited to start school!
(It does help her knowing that she'll get to see her big sister every day at school!)
So when her first day came on Monday....she was READY!!!!!

 A great start to the school year!
Both are loving their teachers....
Avery with Mr. Diaz and Annalise with Mrs. Pennylegion (Mrs. Penny).
Does our hearts good......deep sigh.
