1st Day of Pre-K

We are so very happy the the girls are able to attend preschool

at our church this year. Today was their 1st day.

They will be going 9 to noon giving me and Roman

time to go grocery shopping and keep the house clean 😉

I made the girls dresses for their

1st day of school while I was in Dallas!

I absolutely love how they turned out!

I didn’t want Roman left out so I made him

coordinating pants and shirt.

(yes I know, the polka dots are borderline girly)

I interviewed the girls before and after school. I hope to make this a yearly tradition.
