First Day of Kindergarten

Today was Emma's first day of kindergarten! She has been looking forward to this ever since we got back from our vacation. She and AnnaKate both want to drive by their schools everyday! (AnnaKate doesn't start until Sept. 8th!) The day was finally here, and she was so excited. A special treat was that Daddy was able to go with us! Her favorite part of the day was going outside to play. What kid doesn't like recess?








Ready for her big day.


It's a big backpack for a little folder!


AnnaKate is proud of her big sister. She told me she wanted to go to kindergarten because she loved Emma and wanted to be in her class. I wish she acted like it all of the time! :)

Emma & Mommy


Ready to go in and get started!

With Mrs. Ducey, her teacher. Emma took her some rasberry white chocolate muffins.


Playing before we left!


One last hug from Daddy.


After school! We went to McDonald's for happy meals for lunch. It was a great first day!

I love your blog! My checks are hurting because I have been smiling while catching up on you guys. Love the story of the 911 call. I would have totally done the same thing. Girls started school today and loved it. I started homeschool with Karsten and he kept asking "When can Daniel come over" :)

Happy first day of school Emma! It seems like yesterday you were calling to tell me you were being induced and she was a little bundle!! She is beautiful (& Anna Kate too)! I miss you so much. Wish we were sharing these moments in person.
