State Fair

Our family loves the State Fair: the rides, the food, the animals, and something different to see and do.  We try to go a few times while it is open.  This year we went as a family on Sunday and Tuesday.   I took my students there on Monday, so I was there three days in a row.

Rides

When we went on Tuesday, the Dudos and Eickhoffs were there too, so Grace, Landon, and Monroe rode rides together.

It was another great year of the fair!  I am so glad we have this opportunity in GI.

Family Pictures

We did a mini session with Jessica Richter two weeks ago.  She got so many great shots.  Monroe makes it pretty easy, though :)

Thanks, Jessi!  I love so many of them!

First Day of Preschool

Monroe's first day of preschool was on Friday.  She is going to Peace Lutheran two mornings a week.  Mikki transports to preschool, which makes us so thankful!

Monroe was ready to finally wear her Minnie Mouse backpack.

I went late to work in order to take Monroe on her first day.  She and I went to get donuts beforehand.

She was so excited!

Her teacher, Mrs. Brown

She was playing immediately and was not upset at all that I left.

Over lunch, I FaceTimed with Monroe.  She had a great day and loved preschool.
