It's BACK TO SCHOOL time and a SALE!!

Hi there friends...sorry for the absence! We have been crazy busy preparing for the beginning of the year! We started this past Wednesday! Let's just say...we are tired! Like...barely walking, order pizza for dinner, bed at 8:00 tired!!! And...it was only 2 1/2 days! What are we going to do this week...5 days!!:( Anyways we are off and running!
What an adventure the beginning of the year is for everyone...especially in KINDERGARTEN!! Seriously...some of our little sweeties are not even sure how to hold scissors not to mention walking in a straight line or writing their names!! But...that makes it all the more exciting at the end of the year when we see just how far they have come! Keep your eyes on the progress and the end results! Next week we will begin our assessments...what an interesting time that is!:)
With the beginning of the year comes...BACK TO SCHOOL SALE!!! WooHoo...who is excited???
