Today was the first day of school for Blake and Alli. Blake started the 7th grade and Alli started preschool. Here are some pictures of Alli, unfortunately Blake was with her mom so I didn't get any pictures of her. I did call her and she said that everything went well, her locker worked and most of her teachers seemed nice. Alli, on the other hand, gave a complete rundown of her day including having sloppy joes and fries for lunch, and oreos for snack. Jenny said that when she dropped Alli off, she said "Bye mom!" and turned around and went in. Luckily she was able to get some pictures before that happened! Jenny was told that when it was rest time, there were a couple of kids crying, but when the teacher walked by Alli she said, "I'm not crying!" I think Alli will do well going to school. Blake will most likely do well too, she always does! Blake should be finding out about school softball soon!
A couple of side notes:
- Alli's gymnastics class got to go to the big trampoline. Alli already knew what to do, we have one at home! She looked like a natural, even when they had to jump, land on their bottom and bounce up to their feet again.
- Blake's youth choir teacher called to see if she was going to sing this year. Blake has said she would like to sing and this made Rod happy. He said he was looking forward to seeing her sing again!
- Washing dishes by hand is dangerous, especially when you are sticking your hand in a glass and turning so you can scrub the bottom... Let's just say it could send you to the ER to get six stitches, wrapped up and have to wear a splint on your pinky finger for five days. Then again, I don't have to do dishes for 12 days, I wonder how fast that dryer door actually closes!
