Back to School

The long awaited first day of school finally arrived! Well, for Mckinley. The twins had to wait another week before Kindergarten started.

Mckinley lucked out and got some ward kids and some girls from last year in her class again. She was so happy that first day of school. She was grinning from ear to ear the entire day and on cloud 9 all afternoon when she got home. School is definitely her jam.

Her good friend Lucy that she met on the first day of school.


This is out of order, but a quick shot of the pickle ball lines we painted for Ross's birthday.

Tyler, Kallie, and Sophie enjoying the rain on a crazy stormy day.

I took the kids for smoothies one day while Mckinley was at school. 

I had fun recreating this picture of the twins from 4 years ago when they first got this alphabet puzzle.

Tyler started soccer! He was so excited and has loved every minute of it so far, always asking when he gets to play next.

This is a picture of his first practice.

 

And his first game. He is with a bunch of neighborhood boys and practices are at the church right by our house and games are at the park right by that. We are very lucky!

 Finally Tyler and Kallie got their turn. They were so excited about school and have loved Kindergarten so far!

Ava insisted on wearing a backpack too and has been obsessed with it ever since.

I am enjoying 3 hours of down time while Tyler and Kallie are at school and Ava is napping. I'm getting a lot done and loving it!
