Abby's First Day of Kindergarten!

The big day has finally arrived ... for several years, Abby has been waiting anxiously to get on that school bus with TJ and head off to school ... and today she did just that!

The bus stops just a couple of houses down from our house, and Abby is very lucky to have not only TJ to walk there with ... but also Beverly and our two neighbor girls. They were all so excited to have her join them on the ride this morning!

We saw her off and then Drew and I drove into the school to watch her get off the bus and line up with her class, ha ha. A real "Tremont Tradition" to get the most out of this big day. Her bus first went to the middle/high school to drop off TJ and Beverly (with full instruction from TJ for her to remain seated, I'm certain) and then the bus goes a few more blocks to the grade school. The great thing about a small town is that from our house to the first school and onto her school is probably only about 4 miles total.

We took a quick picture of her with her teacher. Her teacher is very sweet and big on hugs ... and that will suit Abby just fine! Then we gave her a quick hug and we were off so she could start her big day! Can't wait to hear all about it later today!

Now Drew and I are off to finish up his shopping for college and pick up those few last minute items ... and I'm really looking forward to having the day to spend with him, just us, before he heads off to college on Sunday!
