First Days of School {2013}

Well, we are off and running in our school year.  Oliver started a few weeks back, and Lily has been in school for 3 mornings now.  They were both so excited to start this year, which makes sending them that much easier.  

Oliver is in first grade in Mrs. Bartel's class this year, along with many of his friends from kindergarten.  We LOVE this school.  Everything is hands-on, they work with animals, chore, sell things, etc.  And this year--his teacher plays guitar!!!  :-)  

 At his request, we brought back the bus cake.

And Oliver's interview for the year:

She requested (at Daddy's prompting) bubble bread for the morning of...

 

Brahm wanted his picture taken in front of his bubble bread, too!

Lily sat down to take pictures and immediately turned around.  I asked what she was doing, she said, "Take a picture of my princesses!" 

 And Lily's favorites:
