Finally got a chance to post these. Sadie is having a good time in 3rd grade. She has made a new friend, Hannah (which is great because she was really really sad that her best friend Maddi moved during the summer). She still enjoys reading and science. Sara is absolutely loving 1st grade. She loves going to school for the full day. Her best friend from last year, Willow is in her class which is cool. She still isn't into reading very much but hopefully that will change as she gets more confident. Abby started kindergarten last week and is very happy to be going to Sumpter with her older sisters. She goes in the afternoon so I get to hang out with her during the first half of the day. She is learning to write her ABC's the "school way", which is kind of different than what we grew up with....I'm not sure I like it but whatever.... So I get a couple of free hours in the afternoon all by myself. I'm volunteering 3 days a week (one day in each of the girls rooms) for an hour or two. Ryan is teaching 4th grade for the second year. He was able to change rooms and get one with some windows and a door to the outside. Nice!
So, things have been busy but we are getting back into the routine. I'm REALLY looking forward the fall season. It's already getting cooler and the leaves are starting to turn. I love it!!! We're going to get our pumpkins this weekend and then we can get our Halloween decorations out. Yay!
Soooooooo, what has everybody been up to?
