Back to School

Here at the Sanders house, there has been a lot of excitement about going back to school.  Olivia is excited to be going to Kindergarten, Owen is excited to be going to Pre-K, and Brian and I are excited that we no longer have to pay for daycare (whoop, whoop).  Olivia and I decided that a new outfit was in order for this big occasion, so we went shopping last week.  I told Liv that she could pick out any outfit she wanted for her first day.  She also needed new tennis shoes, so I let her pick those out as well.  You can see from the picture what we ended up with- pink, pink, and more pink.  I do not think that she could have found a better outfit to represent her personal style.  Olivia and I also picked out a new shirt for Owen.  Thank goodness he's not nearly as picky about his clothes.  Anyway, the first day of school came and the kids got all decked out in their new duds.  Neither of them were particularly forthcoming with details about their first day, but they both said that they liked it.  From what I can gather, the highlight of Owen's day was that he got to play with new play-doh.  Olivia enjoyed seeing her friends from Pre-K.  Overall, this has been a very good start to the school year.  Let's hope it continues.
