Our days are quite full - taking us until 2pm or so to finish school. Then we have gymnastics twice a week in the afternoons for our youngest girl and we just started soccer yesterday for our oldest girl and boy. In a couple weeks, L'il girl will start her art class for the semester. We've been trying to fit in swimming a couple of times a week while we can. The girls can all swim now and are even doing flips in the water. Busy, busy, busy - hence the lack of posting.
We kept with our tradition for the first day of school:
- "Riding" into the living room in the school bus (which is now quite tattered)
- Scavenger hunt with clues leading to a yummy snack (first clue was in the balloon)
- Indoor pencil hunt
- Posters of their stats, hand tracing, self portrait, and whatever else they wanted to draw
- Lots and lots of pictures!

Here are the pictures of our first day.
Another school year started - I really like the way you do your first day - it is very creative and the kids look like they have a great time with their first day activities. Always enjoy seeing the pictures..and hearing about what they are doing and seeing their stats. You have a beautiful family and fitting everything in surely keeps you busy. They are growing so much and I wish I was able to see all of you more often. Take care - your doing a fantastic job. Love and hugs from Aunt Loretta.
ReplyDeleteI too, like the way you start each new school year. You make it so much fun for them. I like the first day of school pictures, and information. The pictures are all great,and fun to look at. Thank you Jessica for sharing with us.

I love that, too. The pictures were great and having the information that you can look back on is really neat. Glad school is finally getting into a pretty good routine now. Thanks so much for sharing.
