Back to School

The girls started school last week. It was really needed! We were getting bored and cranky with each other and I just need a little alone time with a super cute 3 year old:)
The night before we did our back to school fashion show, and guess what? It turned out great this time! No crying, yelling, pouting like last year. Just silliness, dancing, and lots of diva attitudes.





Caught this as dad was leaning down for a kiss during a dance. Cute



And Ani might win best poses and moves again this year, she is pretty crazy.





Ani is in all day kindergarten which is tough, she is getting a little better after a week and cries a little less but she is exhausted and not used to all this learning. She told me she hates growing up, you have to color in the lines! She also came home saying "the boy on my left is annoying and the one on the right is obnoxious"!
Ave is loving school-of course. She jumped right into it, found friends, loves her teacher, sits by a cute boy etc.
Ry on the other hand has had a harder time. 7th grade in a new school is tough. It was really hard for me to drop her off on the first day cause I knew how nervous she was. Each day seems to get better for her, luckily she is outgoing and not like me! She will be fine as soon as she makes some friends I am sure.
And the boss and I just love the quiet house to ourselves. I am so glad to have this time with her and get to pay all my attention to her, its tough when you have 3 loud sisters to ever get heard, she will yell "my turn to talk" over and over until you let her talk.
Dad was able to meet us for a few minutes for after school icecream which was a great surprise and Aunt Beth and uncle Mikey were in town visiting so they were there too. Which they loved cause our family misses out on a lot with us being so far away.
