First Day of School 2015

I know that the girls are in their third week of school and I am finally getting this posted.  It is 

not my fault :)   We upgraded to Windows 10 and Blogger doesn't like the upgrade. So, we needed

to install a different browser, and life was busy. Raphael installed it for me last night and now

I can blog again.

Before the obligatory "back to school" pictures, I have to say that I took the girls 

for haircuts before school started. We switched to a new stylist and she wanted

to try something different with the girls.

Miss Nikki with Rebecca

Nikki asked the girls if she could straighten their hair and of course they said yes!!

It took three hours, but they were excited for the end result.

By the next day, Rebecca's hair was starting to curl again. Rachel really wanted straight

hair for the first day of school, so she wore a shower cap for a few days to help.

Finally, the first day of school........

Rebecca was the first to go to the bus. Off to 1st grade!!

She was excited to be back to school and I pray it's a good year.

Rachel's bus leaves an hour after Rebecca's bus, so I went home and woke

Rachel up for school.

6th grade!! First year of middle school.

She was a mixture of excited and nervous.

(and so was I).

Raphael walked her to the bus stop and she was off!

I went to the gym and had lunch with a few of my friends. 

Both the girls were full of stories when they got home.

So far, they both seem to be adjusting well and we have high hopes,
