Yeah!! WooHooo!! It's here!!! First day of school for the kids was August 24, 2009. Madison is in 6th grade, Zach in 4th, and Lucy is in Kindergarten. All three kids at one school this year for the first and only time. Zach was such a "guy" that morning. I had to beg him to change out of his holy, wrinkled, stained, old shirt for the first day. He changed into a camping shirt, and then finally I had to go help him. He picked a shirt that he had worn for the last two days. "It was still clean", not that he cares if it's clean or not. 
Lucy was wanting to wear her old jeans with holes and a turtleneck shirt that is way to small. This was very surprising because she usually only wants to wear skirts or dresses. We talked her into her lemon dress the night before. When we woke up it looked like it was going to be a cold, rainy day, not a good sundress day. She chose this. Every item had pink on it, therefore it matched.
Madison had her outfit picked out days before. She was up showering in first thing in the morning. The key is to make it look like you don't really care though. She would NOT let me curl her hair. My little hippie!
Orchard Elementary, here we come!
Lucy got to go to an hour of Kindergarten Monday. Then she will go in for a half hour of testing on Thursday morning. School will start up for her normally next Monday. She has proclaimed how unfair this is over and over and over and over. I agree!!!! The little ones listened to "The Kissing Hand" from the teacher and then were sent back to us to get a kiss on their hand. Lucy has made a lot of friends already and says "Everybody at this school likes me". A little narcissistic I guess, but that wont hurt anybody!

Orchard Elementary, here we come! Lucy has Mrs. Armknecht, the same Kindergarten teacher Zach had. We LOVE her and were very excited to learn Lucy would be in her class. Zach has Mrs. Barnes. We don't know her yet, but judging by her name, she seems very nice. Madison has Mrs. Faulkerson and she is very excited. Every March she gives all the students in her class Irish names by putting a Mc or O' in front of their last name. Madison will have to be McO'McDougald. hahaha
