Back to School Days

9.14.2008

Back to school time world wide.

Here are some pictures of the girls' first days of school. Sophie started at the end of August and Annie's preschool began about two weeks later. Needless to say, Benjamin says, "Shoes, On, Bye-Bye" the whole time they are gone!

Annie escorting Sophie up the hill to her school, thus beginning the first day of Second Grade (or Grade Two, for you Canadians).

Happy Days Are Here Again. Sophie is still at that wonderful age when the beginning of a new school year is a highly anticipated event.

Sophie wearing some new duds...a dress is a rare sight for this tomboy!

Sophie is awarded with a Student of the Week award in recognition of her Summer Reading Challenge efforts (87 books, and over 1000 pages) and her helpfulness in the classroom.
