More about beginning school

Here is Ashley with her new teacher the day before school actually started.

Ashley and Ryan got a little time on the playground-I was really proud of Scott, he volunteered to be a new student buddy and showed around a new 6th grader and his family on the "Meet the Teacher" day.

Here is Ryan with his teacher outside their classroom on the first day of 4th grade!  She is super nice, from South Africa, married to a 5th grade teacher, and they are expecting their first baby in January-a boy. 

Here are Scarlett, Hannah, and Ashley playing on the first morning before school.

These are also from the 1st morning of school-Ashley's class is lined up in the gym, ready to go upstairs to class.

later in the week, Ryan and Ashley wanted to see Scott's locker-cool big brother!
