It's official...School is ON!

Yesterday was the...

I should have taken a picture without the sign, but Lillie wore one of her new dresses to school. Let me explain the significance...Lillie received a LOT of clothes from her Nana and Papa. She LOVED every bit of it, but was wanting for dresses AND a little heartbroken that we were giving away some of her old clothes (and when I say old, I mean she still had AND WORE pants that were 18-24 months!! Talk about elasticity!). Anyway, we told her we would go shopping for a few dresses for the new school year. So when we got to the mall, I asked her what kind of dress she wanted, and here was her reply, "I want a pink dress with roses and shiny things." Ok, well, we searched and searched and lo and behold, I found a dress that had pink, a rosy/heart shape on the chest, and glittery sequins on the skirt. What the princess wants, the princess gets! ha ha


Meet Mrs. Doyle! She will be Lillie's 1st Grade teacher this year.

Not a great picture, but once announcements were made and instructions were given, it was time to get to work.
After Lillie got settled, I took Keola to work up in DC and we had brunch at a new found restaurant we LOVE. They are famous for their homemade pop tarts (super yummy! Who knew a homemade pop tart could taste so good?!!?) and their milkshakes (my personal favorite - Chocolate & Peanut Butter Nanners (Bananas) SOOO tasty!! Lillie was introduced to milkshakes when we discovered this restaurant and found it to be her ultimate best dessert -
Chocolate Soup!! - As she calls it!
