Back to School!

The girls were so excited for the first day of school!

With our Back to School dinner, Father's Blessings, and new clothes fashion show under our belt we were ready for today!

The girls had a great day.

Elodie knew all the kids in her class except 1. And the only reason she didn't know the one boy is because he was new.

Addysen, on the other hand, was new to this school. She always knew that we were going to switch her to Cortina after kindergarten but she was still nervous about being somewhere new. She knows all the little friends in her primary class that go to Cortina and with Elodie there too she knew a lot of kids at the school. She has 3 kids from her primary class in her 1st grade class and she was so excited about that. Even though they are all boys! Addysen has such a fun personality and we weren't worried at all about her making new friends. When she got home this afternoon she told me immediately "Mom, I made so many new friends today!"

I'm so excited for the girls and this new school year. I dislike that Elodie is in 5th grade! I remember 5th grade! But I'm still super excited for her and all the fun things she will learn and do this year! It's hard to be too sad when they are so excited!

Evyn kept saying all day today "Just you and me mommy. Everyday!" I am going to love this year just the two of us! She is in a playgroup with 3 other little girls in our ward once a week and she is thrilled about that!
