preschool open house

tonight was the boys' open house (thank goodness they get one!).  they were pretty excited to go but disappointed to hear that they still have a few weeks before school starts (not until after labor day).  i had to work a mops table during the open house since this is our host church (some miscommunication left me without relief) but i stepped away when matt brought the kids up to meet their teachers.  they both know their teachers because they had older siblings in the class already but still acted a little shy to be the center of attention.

matt brought the kids because i had to come set up the mops table and then i got a call from the coordinator that the bulletin board in the preschool (a small one right next to the door) was very, very out of date (like last march out of date) so i grabbed a roll of brown paper, markers and printed off the theme logo (beautiful mess) on my way out the door.  not too bad for five minutes and no supplies, right?  lucky for me the theme is "mess" because my slapped together board worked great with the theme!

the open house was well attended and there seemed to be a lot of new faces.

unfortunately, i did not get any pictures other than the mops bulletin board.  i just forgot in my hurry to walk around with the kids.  i will get another chance on the first day of school so it is okay.

after the open house, matt and i were talking about when kids would be at the same schools, etc.  turns out that if we hold mason back (which is what we are planning to do at this point) he and madelyn won't be at the same school until high school!  and if we don't hold back manning, he and maddux would be in the same grade.  the boys are going to 'rule' their schools by pure number (and probably size)!  crazy stuff.

so off to another school year!  love.
