First day of school

Autumn started kindergarten 2 weeks ago. She was really nervous, but she LOVES it! She is in a Spanish language dual immersion class. Here are some pictures of her in her princess first day of school outfit.


She even had disney princess hairties and disney princess socks.



Autumn being cute!

We had a back-to-school dinner the night before kindergarten started. We had pesto, green beans, and broccoli. Autumn made limeade to drink and I made a key lime pie (recipe taken from Cafe Johnsonia) and we add green food coloring to the key lime pie so it really looked green to stay with the green theme. Then Ben helped Autumn make green whip cream for the waffles. Autumn said we had to use green plates, so we gathered as many green dishes as we could. It was a lot of fun, and Autumn really liked it.

Such a cute girl! I didn't realize Autumn and Kate were so close in age--Kate just started kindergarten, too. Your back-to-school dinner is so fun. Why did you choose all green foods?

Joel and I both did a double take because we can't believe Autumn is so big! Remember when we watched her on Valentine's day! She was so little then. Time goes by so fast.

How did mom survive the first day?

She looks so grown up. I remember taking my oldest child to kindergarten and coming home crying.
