First Day of School 2011

Emma is a 4th grader in Mrs. Case's class. Eva Grace is a 2nd grader in Mrs. McCall's class (Emma's teacher from last year).
A lot of prep work goes into the first day of school. Our backpacks were picked out and monogrammed with bling. Eva Grace believes you can't have enough sparkles, which is obvious by her unphotographable backpack. Our nails were also painted, favorite outfits picked out by each girl, teacher's gifts packed, and prayers said. Thankfully, all the school supplies were delivered at Open Houses, which were all 3 on the same night, at mostly the same times, in three opposite ends of towns!
Ella started Tuesday at Concordia. Her preschool from last year closed but most of her girl friends from there came to Concordia too! (Anders, Ella, Bella, Kaleigh).

One of her best little girlfriends, Ella Mae, is also in her class this year. And, Theron Johnson, Eliza Ramsey and Caroline Box are right next door! (Notice her lunchbox. She didn't get a backpack but was very proud of her new lunchbox!).

Teacher gifts this year...
