it happened and WE survived!!!!

Today was the day . . . the day that my baby started Kindergarten and, Praise the Lord, all went well!!!! Ellie did have a little meltdown last night . . . and by "little" I mean HUGE!!! But God was gracious and she woke up happy (probably because she didn't have to wait until 7-0-0!!) and ready to go to school.

Getting ready to go

The Backpack

Our Little Kindergartener

Just the Four of us

With Papa and Tilly

On our way . . .

Checking the place out

Ellie and some of her fans (aka cousins)

Sending her off

How did this happen? One day we were changing her diaper
now we are sending her off to school!!!!

Yeah! Alyssa and Parker made it - parking was a zoo - so Papa ran
to grab the kids so they could send Ellie off in style.
Ellie was so glad to see her cousins!

Ellie and Mrs. Walker

Not so sure about this . . .

Standing in line . . . really not sure about this whole thing

getting more comfortable

we got to stay for a little bit to do a craft

Our Craft

Pick-Up - All Smiles!!!

In front of the school with her first Green Panther Paw
(part of their reward system!!)

At McDonald's - special lunch - ready to do her craft
(a present from Alyssa, Parker, and fam)

McDonald's with two of her cousins - Caleb and Brett

A new friend - we actually ran into her at McD's - and come to find out they go to the same school, but different classrooms.
