So at Whitney's request we are blogging about 1st grade. I remember it all to well. There I was with my blonde hair wearing my brown and yellow uniform. Ready to tackle St. Dominics School and all it had to offer. I looked so cute....what? She meant Julia's 1st week of 1 st grade? You don't want to hear about me? Fine then!
So yes it was Julia's first week of 1st grade and she has had a blast thus far. She was eager to get to school to see her friends, to meet her teacher, and riding the school bus with her cousins. She couldn't get out the door fast enough the first morning and her words getting off the bus..."that was the BEST day ever!" Words every mother loves to hear when it comes to their child and school. And yes I am not completely blind to the fact that the enthusiasm will end at some point. So I will savor every bit. Getting into the routine of homework has been a bit tough though. We'll get there.
Here are some pics from that morning.
Yesterday I went to pick up Julia's soccer jersey. Her dad is very proud that she is following in his footsteps. She starts playing soccer for Westside Market (same team her dad plays softball for BTW) next week so you know there will be pictures of that.
Big plans this weekend. I have tomorrow off. Saturday we are going to see Tina walk down the isle. Thanks to Chris and Faith for watching Julia on such short notice! Sunday we have a HUGE party for my brother's 40th birthday. The theme of the party is Olympic complete with events such as boccie, three legged race, a shoe toss, etc. I, along with JJ, will be representing team Japan. Come one come all. The more the merrier. If you click on the link to the left named Rob you can register your team. And on Monday I will be hanging out with Bonnie because her family is in town. (pssstt that means Michael)
So that's our week in a nutshell. I'll be posting pictures from this weekend. Everyone be good, and be safe!
