I'd like to publicly thank our photographer, Sofia Alfaro, for the picture below. She worked it and it turned out great!

Audriana began 2nd grade today at Mullan Rd Elementary. Her teacher is Mrs. Sackmann. She has really been excited and looking forward to finally getting back to school (I hope she still has that same excitement each and every school year!). Her teacher invited all the students and parents to come to school this past Tuesday, so they could meet her and get acquainted with their classroom. The kids also got to see who would be in their classroom, and who they recognized from last year. Audriana found out that Christopher, Kellen, and Khoral were in Mrs. Sackman's class also -- these were kids that were together in Mrs. Soderquists 1st grade class. She was really happy about that! She also recognized quite a few of the kids from the playground etc. Mrs. Sackman seems very nice and we have heard wonderful things about her from other parents. The school also has a new principal this year -- Mr. McGinnis! As she has done since her first day of Montessori Central (just before her 3rd b-day), she walks right into school and doesn't look back! She has such a high sense of confidence and maturity! As I have done with each "first day of school", I called her back to me to give me a goodbye hug!! LOL!

Here are a few pictures from this past Tuesday when we got to meet her new teacher, as well as some pictures of this morning (first day!).
