The Big Third Grade!

I can't believe how fast my kids are growing up. My friends told me that once they hit Kindergarten it just flies by...I didn't understand it, but I do now. Alicyn started third grade on Wednesday this week. She missed the first two days of school because we were in Alaska. I tried really hard to get "D" track so that we wouldn't have that problem but my attempts failed. She has Mr. Yates and is so excited to have a male teacher. We were able to go and meet with him on July 18th for a while and get to know him prior to our trip. I thought that would be a good idea because then when she started school two days late she would already know where her class room is and her teacher.

She is so excited to begin a new school year.


This is in the morning just before school yesterday.
