1st Day of School

Today was the 1st day of school - Emily started 2nd grade and Alli started kindergarten. They were both SO excited - I think I was the only one that was a little nervous. Emily (who is NOT a morning person) was up with her alarm, dressed and ready to go out to the bus with 20 minutes to spare. I sure wish that would continue every day!

Alli had a great 1st day and said she wished it was longer (it's 1/2 day and she's only there for about 2 1/2 hours). She made a new friend and can't wait for tomorrow. Emily was excited to see all of her friends again. The only thing that was disappointing was her teacher is ill and out until October - she said her substitute was very nice.

Here are a couple of pictures of the girls this morning.
