First Day of School!

Blake and Ashlyn had their first day of school on Monday, August 29th.

Blake started 2nd grade and is in Mrs. Oberhansley's class. She seems like she is going to be a GREAT teacher and we have heard lots of good things about her. This is her first year teaching 2nd grade. She taught the 6th grade in the past. Blake seems to really like her.

Ashlyn started kindergarten and we were really excited to have her in Ms. Day's class. We would have been happy with either kindergarten teacher, but have heard such good things about Ms. Day so we are really glad to have her. Kindergarten is only half a day, so Ashlyn goes in the morning and gets out at 11:20, which is the opposite of most of her friends, so she will have to branch out and make some new friends. Here are a few pictures of the first day of school. (We have made it a tradition to take the pictures in the same spot so that we can look back and see how much they have grown each year.)...

Aren't these just the cutest kids ever!

These last ones are of Ashlyn in her class sitting at her desk.

(I didn't get any of Blake's class. Apparently he's too big to have his mom go into his class on the first day of school!)
