Fall is near!

We went out to our favorite apple farm last weekend and this year they have a brand new building!  We had a fun tractor ride around the farm to see all the trees, tasted some yummy apples, bought fresh corn, and even enjoyed some sparkling apple juice but best of all were the caramel apples!!  We have had unusually warm, beautiful weather the past few weeks, but the mornings definitely feel fallish (is that a word?)  Each year our family enjoys this season more and more!  Happy Fall everyone!
I decided to wear my fairy wings and fairies must have a wand too!

Kindergarten!

The day finally came, my countdown is done!  The first day (yesterday) was a half day with Mass so we didn't spend that much time in the classroom.  The morning started off with my mommy and daddy coming in singing to me as they woke me up.  I had a rough night being up coughing, but I was still excited!  I eagerly got dressed but wasn't too hungry yet.  Everyone else got ready, took some pictures, and we were off!  (This all before the normal time I wake up!)  When we got to the school my whole family came into the classroom with me and we put away supplies and took more pictures, you know my mama.  My teacher is Ms. Carrier and I love her already!  She read us a story on the carpet and Sam sat right by me.  The parents left and I met my 8th grade buddy.  Her name is Maggie, just like my cousin!  She is so nice and there are plenty of other 8th graders who are so nice to me.  This was my mama's last class she taught before having me!  Today was a "real" day of school, 8-3!  Good think I remembered my rest blanket!

What a gentleman!  My backpack was getting a little heavy from the supplies, so Sam offered to carry it for me!




If you have read the book, The Kissing Hand, you know what I'm doing here.  Mommy and daddy were giving me hugs and leaving me in my classroom.  Can you believe there were no Kindergartners who cried??

Getting Ready!

I'm soo excited!!  I've had had a countdown for the last month and now it reads just 3 days!  I've been talking about it all day.  Yes, it is the countdown to school!  This is what I've been up to this week, sleep and then wake up and practice my morning routine.  I tried on my uniform and didn't want to take it off!  I have my new backpack, lunchbox, and all my supplies.  I'm officially ready for Tuesday!

Mama snapped a picture of me sleeping one night.  I lined up my friends to watch over me.

My countdown.  I change the number every day all by myself!
