Hannah & Ashley's First Day of School

School started on Monday, August 22, 2011.  Who in their right mind starts school on a Monday?  In my short 37 years, I have never been apart of this!  School always either starts on Wednesday or Thursday.  Oh well!  This year school ends on May 27, which means no going back to school after the Memorial Day weekend.  Nice!

The weekend before school started we were camping at Twin Lakes.  I needed to make sure we left early enough that we could get everything pulled together (backpacks and such) and get to bed early enough to start the new school routine.

Hannah is a 4th grader this year.  She is growing up so fast.  She is a very responsible child.  It is so nice to know that you can give her the run down of the day and she'll stick to it.  Now the homework part.....well....this needs a little work.  She would rather play than take the time to sit down and do her homework.  She can do it......when you duct tape her to the kitchen chair!

She loves her teacher this year.  She is a new teacher to the school and Hannah is striving to make her happy.  So far this year they have two field trips planned for September.  One to Guinnavah Camp Ground up Logan Canyon and the other to The Great Salt Lake and Antelope Island.  Fun!!!


My cute little Ashley is a First Grader!  Oh....to have more kids like her.  It's music to a mom's ears to hear, "I love school because you get to do math."  "I love reading!  Can I please read more?"  Just typing this brings tears to my eyes.

Ashley is such a cute, soft spoken little girls.  She loves going to school each morning and never gives me any flack about it.  She is enjoying hot lunches.  I give her a ton of credit for trying new foods.  However, maybe it's because she hasn't figured out the Muncher's Menu yet.  I'm sure it will come in time.

Ashley is a bit of a free spirit, which can be good and bad.  Hmmm.....it is interesting to see the differences between her and Hannah when it comes to being responsible for your items.  More than once last year Ashley's jacket ended up in the lost and found.

They can take cute pictures together when they want!


And don't forget Nicole!
