So today was Mattison's 1st day of kindergarten and she was VERY ready. She was so excited when she woke up and realized that the day had FINALLY come. She is attending a great charter school where they are required to wear uniforms and I think it is great.
This is on our way to school this morning. She was all smiles!
Kylee was also very excited. She had no idea why but she could tell everyone else was excited so that was good enough reason for her to join in the fun.
Daddy actually did pretty good this morning sending his baby off to school.
I have to say I think I also did pretty good. :) I learned that there were quite a few other LDS kids in her class and I know it sounds silly but that gave me comfort.
After the kids drop their backpacks off at their classroom doors they can play on the playground until school starts. Mattie likes this idea!
So now it is time for school to start and Mattison was very quick to put her backpack in her cubby and sit right down at her desk.
I took this picture when she didn't know it. She had been sitting there for about 3 minutes and just could not figure out why we weren't starting school yet. As you can tell here she is ready to get this party started. Let's just hope this enthusiasum continues all her life.
As soon as we pick her up from school she tells us she had fun and she is hot and needs a cold water bottle. Oops mommy forgot to send a water bottle to school with you. So here she is chugging my cold water bottle.
Then we decided it would be fun to get her a ice cream cone from McDonald's to celebrate her 1st day of kindergarten. I think she liked this celebration. Wish I had a picture of her AFTER that ice cream cone was finished. It would leave no doubt in your minds that she enjoyed it.
I'm so glad you enjoyed your 1st day of kindergarten Mattison! Mommy, Daddy and Kylee missed you a lot today but we know you will enjoy your time at school. Love you baby girl!! Now time to go do your homework!!! Seriously :)

I can't believe she is already in school! So exciting!!! She looks so cute in her little uniform and I love her enthusiasm for class to start!
How fun for her! MJ starts on Wed. I am sooo ready. It has been a looong summer! :) But the more I think about it, I am actually a little nervous for my baby girl to leave me all day. Excited and nervous all at once, I hate these emotional milestones in our kids lives!! But love them at the same time! :)
She was definitely ready to go to school. It's so cute to see her so excited about it. You DID do good, maybe you were prepared too!
yeah mattie! hopefully she keeps up the "loving school" attitude for the next 12 years at least! good job mom & dad, I'm sure I'll be a mess when mine finally starts school...then again, I think I'm ready for him to start now...!
I'm so glad our little girlies are in the same class! It calmed my "First Day of School Jitters" to see a familiar mommy face! :)
Way to go Miss Mattie! You sure looked cute on your first day of school! I can't wait to hear about all the things your learning.
How exciting!!! I'm pretty sure when the time comes I'm sending hannah to a charter school. I just don't trust public schools anymore.
I'm so excited for Mattison. She's definitely ready :)
My Madison starts school on the 27th! But she is chomping at the bit!! We meet the teacher tomorrow and she said that she hope her teacher isn't old!!!
She is getting so big! Welcome to a new parenthood chapter Brianne- Kids in school!
Oh-h-h-h, it's so nice when kids are excited about school. And I hope you were kidding about homework! Cute little uniform, by the way! Don't forget the water bottle next time (it's way too hot to be in school).
Congrats Matti!!! Looks like you had a good first day!! I want to hear EVERY detail soon!! LOVE YOU!!!!
Hooray Mattison! Going to school in style! Kindergarten is the BEST!!
