My mom ("oma") loves traditions. One of my favorite ones that she has started is being there for each of her grandkids' first day of kindergarten. She was here for sb's, or rather in alabama when she started and so we were really excited and grateful when she decided to come out for tj's first day and stay for a week to help us get settled.
We found a SCREAMING deal on airfare so we jumped on that...Unfortunately we found out when we went to go register the kids that Kindergarten starts a whole week AFTER the rest of the school !!! They do 4 assessment days for the kindergartners and assign them each a day to go. tj's assigned day was the day my mom was scheduled to leave :( and to change the date of travel was going to cost as much as the ticket itself costed!!! Thankfully we were able to get the day changed to the same as sb's first day so we pretended that was his first day :) and all worked out just fine:)
Here are some pictures of us showing Oma around Brad's new work! It is a beautiful campus with super friendly student, staff, and faculty!!!
ooops, forgot joseph :)
