First Day of School

Well, first day of preschool anyhow. Still, Quinn was terribly excited. She had been carrying around her backpack all day Sunday and was ready and standing at the door five minutes before me this morning.

I feel bad about all the kids starting 'real' school next week as we are having terrible weather this week -- the last week of vacation. We've had thunderstorms every day and lots of rain. We got outside after work and school for a few minutes when there was a short break in the rain.
