Back to School

Well Friday was Ellie's first day of preschool. She had a blast. Her teacher is Mrs. Collison and Mrs. Swaitnicki, she has many new friends, and a few friends from last year school. They will be working on letters, numbers and writing skills and continue to work on social skills. Her favorite time at school is still the arts and crafts, guess she gets that from Mom and Grammi, and she loves snack time too.

Today was her first day of Sunday school at church and she really enjoyed that also. She loves meeting new friends! She is excited to learn about God and make those crafts. Oh and they also have snack time which she is excited about.

So off to a busy year we are!

This is our first blog and we hope you enjoy it.

It is September which is the beginning of the end of summer. We are very sad to see it go but Ellie is very excited to start her 4 year preschool. She is attending Good Shepherd Preschool and can't wait to meet all her new friends and teachers. She is also starting her Ballet and Tap class this month and we are keeping busy with various other activities. They both enjoy Story Time at the library and it is wonderful living so close. Sydney has learned most of the songs and enjoys dancing and singing along. She has also been upgraded to a big girl bed and loves it, however she is often caught bouncing on it. Ellie finished 2 courses of swim class this summer at the YMCA and had a blast, she is very brave in the water. When we were up north at the lake swimming she would swim out to the raft and jump off with no fear! Sydney is definitely enjoying the water more, but she likes it on her terms-most everything is on her terms! They had a Princess Birthday this year and had a great time with good food and lots of presents.
