First Day of School!

So, today was the first day of school! In order to relax a little before getting this school year started, we went to the lake yesterday with Elvis's family. We had lots of fun, and Elvis got to teach everybody how to fish! Lucky for the fish, he decided to let them stay there in their nice lake ;-) Here are some pics of our cutie pie nieces:
Daniela, the newest addition of the family:
And Camila, who was our flower girl in our wedding, all grown up now! Today was a little bit of a crazy day because they are actually building a new school building, so we have moved the whole preschool and kindergarten into a temporary house, well, temporary for at least 3 years. It has definitely been a hard task to move everything and decorate the new classrooms. Actually, they aren't quite finished yet with the temp house, but we started classes anyway! Here are some pics of my new classroom, with the murals we painted:


And some shots of the rest of the house:
And this one is for you, Mom and Dad....the annual first day of school shot!!
