1st day of school 2010-2011

No matter how much fun we have together over the summer, we always seem to be ready when it's time to go back to school. (Of course, school starts at the beginning of August here in Arizona, so it's hardly the end of summer!)

It was with mixed emotions that Matthew and I said goodbye to our friend, Katie, who had been our companion these past few years. We were excited for all of the experiences she would have going to all-day first grade. (Last year, she inquired about half-day first grade options. :) She was assigned to Andrew's wonderful teachers, Ms. Cuomo and Mrs. Stewart, and had some lovely new friends in class.

Andrew started 3rd grade with a lot of friends and Rebecca's previous teacher, Ms. Feldhusen.

Rebecca was excited to be in class with some good buddies for her last year in elementary school in Miss Wilson's class.
