Happy Apple

Pretty much the cutest name for a preschool ever.  Ava is loving her Tuesday and Thursday morning getaways into the world without mommy.  She is by far the most outgoing three year old I know and dropping her off at both Sunday school and preschool here have been a cinch.  She loves people, adventure and learning new things (especially when they involve playing outside) so she was so excited for her first day at Happy Apple.

The entrance to Happy Apple.  What an inviting place.

Ava's favorite part... the playground!

Dropping her off the first day.  We could barely get a

good picture, she was so ready to run on in!

I was the one begging for a goodbye hug before she took off.

Despite starting a few weeks later than the rest of the class, Ava has jumped right in.  She was included in picture day and last Thursday we went on a field trip to Cabella's, a sporting goods store that boasts huge animal displays for the kids to explore.  She was by far the most excited one to be there!

At Cabella's, Ava is in the top row, 2nd from the left.

Look who's excited!

Two of Blair's co-workers have three-year olds in Ava's class.  After meeting them once she of course thinks they are all best friends!  She talks about Jaelyn and Brody often and can't wait to spend more time with them.  We are so grateful for a community here of like-minded parents with kids the same age as ours!
