Sophia's first open water swim!

The Pompano Piranhas Power challenge
Sienna came to cheer Sophia on
Always time for a quick sand castle
On your mark....
Go that way
Ahead of the boys
To the finish line
Ready to go
Mom, it was ROUGH out there!
Big waves

Boom! Day one, no problem

Beauties!
Have a great day at your new school, Sienna!
First-grader alert!
Big girl wanted to go in by herself. We settled on following her. 
And her new teacher is... MRS FERGUSON!!!
Turning in her summer homework.

Here's to another great school year

Tomorrow Sophia moves up to *gulp* first grade. So we'd like to say thank you to Mrs. Ferguson and her kindergarten team for such a rewarding, enriching, and FUN kindergarten year. We couldn't be more proud of Sophia or more grateful to the teachers and administrators who have helped her grow.
Mrs. Ferguson has brown hair.
Mrs. Ferguson loves peanut butter cups.
Mrs. Ferguson loves me.
Yes, Mrs. Ferguson loves me. 
Kindergarten ice cream party!

The end of summer surf camp

Florida girls know you've got to spend your last days of summer on the beach. It's back to school Monday; first grade here we come!

So glad to see Sophie's pal Coco at surf camp this week.
