Summer Fades

We had a very busy and eventful summer which was so much fun.  As August began we retreated into a more relaxed pace and just hung out a lot.  We prepped for school, hung out at the pool, and I organized our school year ahead.
 
The kids played video games in the playroom:
A random pic of the girls at church reading.  I was looking at them thinking that they are way too old to be laying around on the floor during sacrament meeting: 
Amidst the sweltering heat of August we began our school year.
Maggie's first day of second grade.  Mr Schufers class.  We warned her that second grade had a boy teacher and that she might be in his class.  When we found out she was indeed in Mr Schufers class she smiled happily and said, "He's nice."  Well ok then! 
First day of school.  The top left is at home with the sun in her eyes.  Top right is her very casual ride to school.  Bottom is Maggie with her new friend Jamison.
School starting also means extracurriculars are back on.  This year is dance for both girls and voice lessons for both girls.  I had wanted voice lessons for Caroline and piano lessons for Maggie but after watching Caroline's first voice class Maggie changed her mind and decided to join Caroline.




 
Caroline's first day of preschool.  Her second and final year at Cornerstone.  She was just so excited...until we arrived and the nerves took over a bit.  Good thing she adapts quickly and was back to happy times with old friends in a matter of minutes:
