Here comes the bus...
Day one of our new school year is over...
We are rolling into another school year; new routines, new lunch ideas, new teachers, new classrooms, new shoes... how exciting!
The kids were very, very excited for school to begin again. Grace is in grade four which means a new hallway in school, a new teacher, some new classmates and a different area of the school yard at recess. After the first day of school she wasn't as excited about all of the changes. After the first week though, she has found a rhythm. Alex is in grade two and Jean is in senior kindergarten. Not a lot of changes for them but excitement to get back to school nonetheless. Our nephew Ross is now in school and shares the same class as Jean which will be nice for both of them. My volunteer commitments at the school are already underway as well - we have a vibrant library for our students completely run by volunteers. I love the library.
What is really love about the school year is time to myself.
For the next few weeks I will be canning and preserving. This week I made crab apple liqueur which we will enjoy in the winter months and later I will be making more jam, salsa, tomato sauce, apple sauce, freezing sweet corn and much more. Our farm has a bounty of produce available right now and we love to make the most of it.
Off to the Renfrew Fair now...
