Back to School 2014

It is completely crazy that summer is already over and school is starting. I guess that is what happens when you spend your summer away with cousins.

The girls are ready fro school and are very excited. They are both going to new schools. Addie is going to the school Macie was at last year. It is called TeSA. It is a fine arts school and she is very excited to be able to do dance and theatre at school.

Macie got into a fine art school called FWAFA. She had to try out back in January and found out in March that she got in. There were over 75 kids that tried out for 3rd grade and only 32 of them got in. We are so proud of her and are so happy she is able to go to a school that we know she will love and that she will be happy at. This girl knows what she loves already and that is music. She has such a natural gift for it and is so excited she got into this wonderful school. She will be at this school until she graduates.

 Here we are getting ready to leave the house. Addie will be in 1st grade and Macie will be in 3rd.

 All of the cute kiddos ready to jump in the car for the long drive. We are in the car for an hour each morning and again each afternoon taking them both to school. The twins do great though so it is no big deal. Thankfully.

 Macie outside of her school getting ready to go in. She was a little bit nervous, but had a few friends in her class from her old school so she was ok.

Addie outside of her classroom getting ready to go in. She was so excited, but a little nervous as well. She did great though.
I just can't believe that we have a 3rd grader and a 1st grader. It is so crazy. They are growing up so fast and the house is so quiet without them. It will definitely take some getting used to them being gone all day again.
