Back to school...

...where did this summer go - it just flew by! The girls started school yesterday and they were SO excited - they love their teachers and are glad to be back with friends. Yesterday as Kaylee left, she said, "I'm going to make a new friend today" and she did! Brianna has two of her cousins in her class and Kaylee has one of her cousins in her class, so that should be fun! The girls couldn't wait to go back today, they woke up at least 1/2 an hour before their alarm clocks and were ready to head to school by 7:30. Brailee and Trysten were both awake, and since we had extra time before T got here, we all took a little bike ride this morning as the girls headed to school. It worked to clear my head and relieve some of the stress I've been under the last couple days, and it turned Brailee's morning around as she had already had a rough morning. So we all came back refreshed and ready for the day. Anyway, here are some pictures from yesterday...

Brailee has wanted to be like her sisters since they started school - so when they got out their lunchboxes, we had to go downstairs and find a small cooler bag that she can pack in the mornings along with her sisters. I have also started doing 'pre-school' for her and T. Yesterday we started our alphabet coloring pages and today we talked about colors. This is all stuff that Brailee already knows, but she is loving it and she enjoyed telling her daddy what she learned that day at school, along with her sisters.
