Kindergarten Picnic and Popsicles

Yesterday evening the rain let up a bit so we could all attend the Picnic and Popsicles for Kindergardeners at the school.  This was the first year they were having this event and I was excited because it meant they would have the class lists posted and we would get a chance to meet some of the other students.

As an added bonus all of the Kindergarten teachers showed up so we got to meet Harper's teachers for the first time, too!

Her teacher, Ms. Gergel (on the right) and her assistant both seem super sweet and I'm really excited about this year for Harper.  Harper was super shy meeting them for the first time, but I know she will warm up to them soon.  We go back to the school next Thursday for Meet and Greet, and then she will be able to see her classroom and get to know the teachers a little more.

The playground was really wet from all of the rain, but that didn't stop the kids from having fun.  Harper, Handley, and Anne Gregory were excited about popsicles and seeing new and old friends.

Hudson spent the entire time running through puddles and tearing up the playground!

The other wonderful thing that happened this week was when our 2013 Blog Book arrived!!!  It only took me 7 months to finish formatting it to get ready to print, but it was so worth it because now I have this beautiful book for us to look back on and remember all of the wonderful and trying memories of 2013!  I actually order 3 of each blog book each year so eventually all of the kids can have one.  It worked out great for yesterday, too, because they all wanted to flip through and see all of the pictures.
