Today was the first day of first grade and first day at the new school for Aliyah. She was so excited for her first day of school. Even though I kept offering to drive her to school, she insisted on taking the bus. (She took the bus last year and loved it.) At the bus stop she met two other kids that were going to be in her same class. This year the bus stop isn't as convenient as it was back in Phoenix, it is a bit of a walk down the street. Not far, but I can't just wait on the front porch for her to get home like we did before. We'll see how it goes when its snowing!!! Maybe I will drive us to the bus stop. Something else that is different from the first day of kindergarten, it was 55* at the bus stop this morning!
New cute backpack that lights up with a matching lunchbox.
I love that she is still so excited about cute little things like that

Off to school...
We are part of a Joyschool group with other families from church. We are doing it two mornings a week. (Spencer is also doing a preschool through the school district--which will be four afternoons a week. We did joyschool and preschool both last year and it was really fun for Spencer.) Today was also the first Joyschool day. Spencer loves doing silly faces for the camera - so these were the closest to a nice, smiley portrait I got:

I love these posts! I've been thinking of you lately but just don't get the chance to give you a call. I'm glad to see that you guys are settling in and having great times with new friends and places.
Your kids are adorable! Aliyah is such a little beauty. Good luck with the transition back to school. Take good care!!
Aliyah looks so old! She looks so cute!
