Back to School

We made it! Hooray!

Of course, the majority of our stuff is still in Utah (until OP's 3-day weekend when he can go up there and bring it all back). That means our beds and the fridge.

How are we surviving? We're crashing at my lovely sister's house. I know, poor her and her hubby, huh?

Anywho, the first thing on our agenda when we got here was to get the girlies enrolled in their new school. Boy, was that an experience. Let's just say their last school was vastly different than their new one. Like, I was a bit terrified to leave my precious babies at this school.

I must admit that I do not adjust well to change, however.

I took the girls out the day after we arrived in blessed AZ so they could buy themselves new outfits, which they have been saving up for. 4 hours and 5 stores later, they finally had their clothes in hand. We journeyed to Target (nada), Old navy (Piper's shoes), Marshalls (not even close), the Disney Store (Adi's Minnie Mouse shoes), Walmart (for cheap accessories, of course), and finally Children's Place. Finally, at Children's Place, I told them that mommy had to go home and lay down, so if they don't complete their outfits here, they would go to school naked.

That worked.

They chose their ensemble and Porter and I finally got a well-deserved break.

Here are my little ladies in front of their new school:



After dropping off the girls, Porter, Pluto and I chilled at the park.



After having a complete breakdown (Did we do the right thing? Should we have stayed in Utah? Am I over reacting? Is this new school going to steal away their innocence forever? That kind of thing), I picked the girls up, and they came walking out in the center of a huge crowd of girls. Needless to say, they had a great first day and they love their new school.

I am still not convinced. But if they're happy, I guess I'm satisfied... for now.
