First, you have to frame that photo of the 2 of you. Really, it is beautiful. Second, way to go to Carly! Another year of fun is ahead!

What a cute idea to bring her a basket on the 1st day of school. I bet the teacher loved it! I also love the popcorn bulletin board too! Clever.

My third grader is looking super. Hope all have a good year. It took me thirty years to get out of the second grade Carly. Love to all...

She looks so cute on her first day of school. Looks like they have to wear uniforms...I love schools that have a dress code like that.
Tiago is going to a charter school and I'm so excited about the cute uniforms...{{giggles}}

BTW-You look gorgeous on that picture of you two and the basket idea is fantastic!!!

Hope you had fun Carly!!!

Love the plaid headband! I wish my kids could wear uniforms. I went to Catholic School until 8th grade and had to wear a uniform. Of course I didn't like it..but as a mom I would love it now!!

I am doing First Day of school "happies" for our teachers too! Still have not decided on what yet???

Have a great day!

Oh, the end of summer with its bittersweet and conflicting feelings. Carly looks so pretty! And that basket! Her teacher must have loved it!

Cute pictures! I love the idea of bringing a basket of goodies for the teacher on the first day of school, and really love the idea of personalized book plates...that's just clever!

How cute you are! I bet the teachers love you. I'm going to have to look closer at the basket to get some ideas..

Looks great! Did any of her friends make it into the same class?

Natasha said...

You 2 look so much alike in the mother/daughter pic!
The basket looks awesome. We did a goodie bag for Luci's teacher but it was no where near that elaborate.
