I hear angels singing...it's the hallelujah chorus! The girls started school again today: Addie in 3rd grade, Heidi in 1st grade [James is on the waiting list for pre-school still, so we'll keep doing home/ co-op school til he gets in]. Last night, when we'd only been home from Utah for about 22 hours, we had Gram & Gramp Melin over for a German dinner and Family Night. For family night, we talked about President Hinckley's "Be's" and unveiled our motto for the year: We talked about helping each other finish what we start and do our best, and then Rich gave each of the children a Father's blessing with his dad. It was sweet and everybody was asleep a little after 8pm. We had more rain and it was cold outside (46 degrees), so it felt like fall!
Here we are arriving at Winans School this morning at 8:15am.

"Can we go yet? The bell is gonna ring!"
Heidi meeting friends and lining up...
Sweet little first graders!
Here she is taking her seat, excited to see her friends.

It has been a wonderfully quiet morning, I've been editing and organizing photos, doing laundry, playing with James...I love being the mom of these rad kids and I'm excited for this school year!
