Somebody please slow down time. I cannot believe this is Kendra's last year of elementary school. Sigh. Of course, I wanted to take a few pics to remember this day.
The preparation: Setting out clothes the night before, getting the supplies ready.

| Cute shorts and pants courtesy of Bama. We got the shoes. |
 |
| Kendra mod-podged torn scrapping paper on the covers of her spirals to make them different. CUTE! |
Time to get up!
 |
| Such a sweet, peaceful face. Can't believe it belongs to a fifth grader! |
 |
| The traditional "pose in front of the house" pic. It was before sunrise! |
 |
| Grade 5! |
 |
| R, Kendra and H---all teacher kids, great friends. |
 |
| Kendra with her teachers, Mrs. Meier and Mrs. Kirk. Kendra switches classes for the first time this year--Kirk for ELA and social studies and Meier for math and science. I teased them that they dressed alike for the first day. Super great teachers...LOVE THEM! |
Kendra came home from the first day of school and could not stop talking! She was so excited about her teachers, had many, many stories to tell. She had been worried about fifth grade--not about the teachers but more about the workload. Rumor was that they got piled with homework. Well, the teachers made some changes and it seems like the homework load is going to be lighter than she had with that mean teacher last year. :-) She was THRILLED. Fantastic start to the year.
By the way, my new class started out well, too. I have a bunch of sweet kiddos. Of course, there is some "getting into shape" to do, but we'll be on track in no time! :-)
