Newbies.

We had our orientation at Dixon Intermediate today.  The girls were of course super excited, but GAVIN ACTUALLY REQUESTED A PHOTO of him in his new desk...so I think that shows he's a little excited too.

4th Grader Heaven in her desk! She has Mrs. Kennison this year.

5th Grader Gavin in his new desk in Mrs. Orehosky's Room!

3rd Grader Annabelle in Mrs. Walker's class!!

We were very excited with the kid's teachers this year...especially since it's a new school for them! Annabelle's teacher, Mrs. Walker was her Aunt Casey's 3rd grade teacher too!! Casey said it was her all time favorite teacher...so we're taking that as a very good sign. Heaven has Mrs. Kennison and she remembered her from her subbing days at Pea Ridge the minute she saw her! Gavin has Mrs. Orehosky who I went to school with. She is just wonderful and she'll keep a special eye on Gav. Gavin's classroom is also across from Uncle Brian's so he can drop in and say hello to him from time to time too! All of the kids had  at least 1 person in their class who they already knew also which hopefully  will make the first day a little easier.

We're Official Patriots Now!!!
