the first day...

Last Wednesday was the first day of school... Allison is now in 1st grade and Katie is in 3rd. I cannot believe how fast the time has gone :( My neighbor Sara and I decided to throw a party at the bus stop again for the first day. We got bagels and Sara made a "cake" out of fruit. We met there about 20 minutes early and enjoyed breakfast together.
The sun was pretty bright...
and hot, so Rich and the girls stood in the shade.
Here they are getting off the bus on the first day.
Megan, Allison, Brook, Lauren, Katie and Brett.
This picture is from my mom's camera... I thought it was a pretty nice picture of our house :)

The day BEFORE the first day... we spent some time at Jill's. The Lepore's just got a Beagle puppy! He is sooooo cute!!! here is doing what puppies do...

Uncle Dougie was a big hit after he took turns throwing the kids into the deep end.
