August 2011...School is in session
Snapshots of a few of the school year's events (technically these    weren't all taken in August but you get the idea)

First Day of Preschool

First Day of 2nd Grade at White Pine

Kylie's school project on Taylor Swift ( the students were asked to pick someone famous that they admire. One girl chose Amelia Earhart, my daughter chose a pop princess-I say whatever floats your boat.)

Her class sang for holiday program at Barnes and Noble

Ky's Self Portrait 

 Sadie was learning about the Presidents of the United States at Preschool (Check out her little devious smile) and performed in a play put on by her Preschool class.

 Graduation Day (but due to her bday she'll be back for round 2 next year ) Above is her teacher-Ms. Karla

August 2012
 Our mini vacation to Island Park

This is the 2nd year Kylie has participated on the city swim team. She really enjoys swimming but not the competition side of it too much. We think a little team work and competitiveness is good for her. In August she competed in 2 meets. Also in August she competed in her first horse show!

 

Sadie started playing T-ball this year and it will come as no surprise that she was one determined little player.  She really loved it and can't wait to play next year as well. Her dad loves that she's a little hustler and goes after every ball.

Back to school festivities...We took a day to have one last hurrah before school began. We spent the day eating treats, doing crafts, watching movies from Redbox and finishing the night off with a relaxing outdoor dinner and a game of t-ball.

Sadie pouting because I won't give her a cupcake till she eats and Kylie mocking Sadie  

 

On her way back to White Pine Charter School as a big 3rGrader!!!

 The following week Ky wanted to have a few friends over for a impromptu back to school bash. The girls played Just Dance on theWii and ate some goodies.
