Tues/Wed/Thursday

Tuesday Piper slept in and I worked out while Presley played then we got ready to get their hair cut! It had been a LONG time since Piper had hers cut and Presley just needed a trim.

  Before

 After! So much better!

We did lunch and then headed home for a bit before we had meet the teacher! Steve had to work late so he missed out this year! Presley has two of her good friends in her class, so she is excited and her teacher seemed very nice and was not the 'boy' teacher that she didn't want! :)

 Little Miss has one more year before she can claim this as her school!

 After meet the teacher, we ran Presley to gymnastics. They had a photo booth station set up!

Steve met us there and then I ran to meet Sarah to bottle the wine that we had made back in June. It is such a fun process and I hope I can go back again soon. The wine we made takes 21 months before it is 'good', so now I just have to remember that April 2019 I have these 3 bottles of wine to drink! After that we went to The Cheese Bar on Ingersoll http://www.cheesebardsm.com/ and had cheese fondue a couple drinks to end our night!

Wednesday, Steve took Piper to daycare so Presley and I could enjoy the last day of summer vacation together. We got up and she wanted ice cream for breakfast.....it was the last day of summer! How could I say no? :)

We hung out for a while and played Sorry, which she won and then decided to get pedicures! It's a nice relaxing hour for us to hang out and she has to talk to me b/c she can't get up and walk away! HA!

After that we ran to Walmart and then went to Burger King, who was out of chicken nuggets? WTH? How do they run out of chicken nuggets??? Then we picked up her friend Maris (who is playing volleyball with her) to have a play date. We went back home and they played and played for 3 hours. I think they had a good time and I'm glad that we got one play date in this summer!

After we dropped Maris off at home, we picked up Piper from daycare and grabbed some ice cream at Van Dee's before headed to Piper's gymnastics! Steve had to work late so he headed home about 6 to get dinner started for us to eat once we got home.

We did baths and basically got ready for an early bedtime since Presley started school Thursday!

Today. The first day of 3rd grade. Her teacher is Mrs. Jaworski who has taught for 13 years! I dropped Presley off at KTC and without another thought she walked in! So much easier than summer drop-offs! The staff at Wallace know Presley so well and know she can be a tough nut to crack to get her to talk or smile or just be comfortable around them. I love them!

I know Presley is going to shine this year given this summer of courage and change and determination that she has found. Be brave, be nice, speak when people talk to you, listen to others, trust your gut and never doubt yourself Presley Grace!
