Katie the 4th grader

I'm very far behind in blogging and posting pictures, but I thought I'd jump up to the present and post pictures of the girls starting school this week!  Katie was the first to start school, she began 4th grade on Tuesday.  There are a lot of changes in 4th grade - she is in a new building (grades 4-8 are at a different campus than K-3), she has to ride a shuttle bus from and to the other campus, she has her own locker, and she can wear a skirt now instead of a jumper.  So many changes!  But she has done great this week.

Katie with her teacher, Mrs. Blankenburg.  Mrs. B may look mild-mannered, but she has a black belt in karate, loves to snowboard, and does lots of triathalons.  The kids are in awe of her!!

Look at all the books!
