Isabel picked out her first day of school clothes the other day at the mall. She got this cute dress at American Eagle. Holy Cow! How did my little girl start fitting into clothes in the junior section. Her feet are now only a half a size smaller that mine. I miss my little girl, but am so excited to see what kind of young women she will become. She is such a sweet girl.
Isabel had her first day of school on Wednesday. Actually it was kind of a first day of school for all of us. We signed up for The Idaho Virtual Academy for this year. So I am her teacher for this year and we do it all at home. It is a neat program where they send you all of your curriculm and supplies, and you also have a teacher that is always available to help you out. And it is all free because it is a charter school. We just really felt like we needed to try something new this year, and out of the available choices here, we really felt this one was the best one. Isabel is really excited about it. I am a little nervous, but so far it has been great. They also set up alot of activities so you have a chance to meet lots of other families. Isabel is also signed up for Art classes at the art museum. She had taken classes there before we moved to NM and really missed her teacher. So she is super excited about that. She is still trying to decide on one other acitivity. She is thinking maybe karate. I think that would be a great choice for her.And in case you didn't notice her hair in the pictures. Yes it is hot pink. Last time her and I went to get our hair cut I went dark and she got a little pink. She loves it and I figure it is just hair. It is semi-permenant so it will eventually wash out, but it is lots of fun in the mean time.

She looks so cute!! Addi and London will be so jealous of her hair!! Addi has been asking to color her hair for the last year, I just am too cheap and don't want to have to worry about that now. Plus, I don't think school would be too hip on it as well. You'll have to let me know how the school thing goes, it sounds awesome especially if she allows you to teach her. It actually sounds like something I could do. Keep me updated on it and if it is only an Idaho idea. Tracy
Isabel, YOu sure look cute! And way to go with the pink hair. Well, we sure miss you guys and are excited for you and your new home. I love building, it is so fun to get to plan and pick out everything that you like and want. I do think that is funny we both went to the dark side with our hair. It is a nice change I think.
PS. Good luck with the teacher thing Mrs. Winder! you will be great.
She looks so cute! (wishing I had girls to buy cute dresses for!- jeans and t-shrts are just not that exciting!) How did your first day go?!
