Touch a Truck

Look closely, Sarah is one the children on the poster for this weekend's Touch a truck. This is a fundraiser for her former preschool.

First day of school!

Today was Simon and Sarah's first day of school. Simon started first grade and Sarah started preschool at St. Peter and Paul School.

Sarah fit right in with her class

dressed and ready bright and early!

Sarah was super helpful with the gift bags I made for the early childhood campus parents. We called the morning "Cheers and Tears" and gave each parent a note of encouragement from the PTO, a poem about first day of kindergarten, hugs and kisses candy and a pack of tissues. It was a big hit with the parents.

Midsummer night's run

The only picture from the race on Saturday. I did not bring my camera due to the rain. One of the Lafayette soccer parents had theirs and took this picture of Simon and Joseph.

Simon and Sarah start school next Wednesday and last night was open house and the ribbon cutting ceremony for Simon's building. Sarah and Simon will both be going to St. Peter and Paul school but in two different buildings. Simon's building will house 1st - 8th grade. The building is reopening after a major renovation to the original 1913 school and an impressive addition.

Sarah's building underwent a face lift this summer and will house a daycare, preschool, and kindergarten. Her ribbon cutting and open house will be this coming Monday night.
