First Day of School

Well, it has finally arrived...the first day of school. Yesterday, the kids had back to school night. Spencer's teacher, Mrs. Phillips, was a no show and the principal seemed quite disappointed. I can't wait to hear about his day. He is in the 6th grade this year. It is his last year at elementary school. He will be signing up for football this week and can't wait to get on the field.

Kate is in the 4th grade. Her teacher, Miss Shelford, could not be more perfect for her. Kate already thinks she is fun and will have no problem getting her to do her work & reading. She is excited that her good friend, Micaella, is in her class this year. She will be starting dance after Labor Day & hopes to get started with piano lessons too!

John had his first day of early morning seminary. He has 5 students that arrive around 6:15am and they catch the bus at the corner. He has a good bunch of kids. Wednesday mornings will be rough since he works at the bowling center in Anderson & doesn't get home till midnight or later. Yes, bowling season is underway.

No school for me. I am able to enjoy some free time and tackle some projects that I have put on hold. I have lots of scrapbooking to catch up on, Christmas gifts to make, and books to read. With the kids at school, I don't feel as guilty when I scrapbook or read for hours.

That's our back to school update!
