Bailey Pride! 1st Day of School

Whitney and Katelyn had their first day of school on Sept 4th, the day after labor day. After much shopping, fussing, changing and primping they finally decided what they would wear to school. On the second day of school there were enough technical difficulties with their wardrobes that they missed the bus.

Whitney's in 5th grade and is now in the 5th and 6th grade hallway where she gets a big locker! Her teacher is Mrs. Gwaizdon and her favorite things about the 5th grade are her locker, band and friends. This year Whitney has joined the band and will be playing the Tenor Sax! She can't get it to make any sound yet but band should start soon and I'm sure we will have plenty of lovely noises in the house during practice time!


Katelyn is in 2nd Grade and has Mrs. Sorensen for a teacher. She was so excited to get back into school and even once told me she wished they could have school all summer. Her favorite things at school are math, recess, and the library. Her favorite new shirt is the red and grey one in the picture.


Lauren will be starting Little People's Palace, a pre-school that is run in conjunction with the High School early childhood education class, on Sept 18th. Even with her broken leg and cast she can't wait to go back to school. Since it is at the high school she likes to call her class "Preschool Musical" like the Disney show.
Dustin is happy and active as ever. Of course he doesn't go to school but he sure is a smarty pants. Just the other day he found a dustpan and broom and was running around the house sweeping. After a while he went into the kitchen an opened the cupboard where the garbage is and emptied out his dustpan by banging it against the side of the garbage just like his mom does.

YOU HAVE A BLOG! We heard it through the grapevine. We are so stoked to see pics of your family. Too fun. All of the kids are (of course) adorable. Tell Lauren that when her Aunt Jeanne broke her leg she chose purple too! Love you guys! : ) PS-Scott linked your blog from our website, hope that's okay.
