PRESCHOOL!!!

I must admit when I started this blog over 2 years ago, I never truly thought about all the 'milestones' that would be on here, but we had one this week, and that was Ella' first day of PRESCHOOL!! Look at what a 'big girl' we have now with her lunchbox, and backpack!! She was so excited and had a blast!

Her teacher seems so wonderful and even sent her a letter with a feather last week, to tell her how 'tickled' she is about this school year!

And what an awesome start to the school year we are having! Adam and I are loving our classrooms, and he is enjoying being a football coach! Since he is gone much more now with his added duties with his players, Ella and I have LOTS of girl time and are enjoying every moment. The pic above is from an impromptu make-believe birthday party, where we set the table, got her 'friends' (like Dora you can see sitting there), made a cake, and used old bags to wrap 'presents' (her toys)! It was awesome!

A few weeks ago, we used our practice skills to create a real SURPRISE birthday party for Papa when he got home from football!

Otherwise we are spending our time doing nails (full spa style with bubbly water to soak with first), painting and doing projects, having dance parties and tea parties, playing Barbie, going to church (for kids choir), and going to gymnastics!! All is certainly well for the Conners these days!
