Today was the day. We all went to the school to meet the new school teacher and classmates. "Our Gang" happened to be going at the same time so we all stopped for a photo op. This year the teachers split up the Barkley Wood Gang. Everyone is in a different class. Mimi has Ms Greenfield for her teacher. She seems pretty good. Don't know enough about her to make any kind of comment yet. Mimi only knew one girl in her class. We actually met Trista at Summit Gymnastics this year where she was another student in Mimi's class. Then out in the hallway we met up with anohter friend Toshiko and her two girls.
Toshiko and Mari's mom (Setsue) were friends back in Virginia. Toshiko's oldest daughter Julia, is best friends with Alliyah (Zoe's big sister).
It seems like the whole state of Washington showed up this afternoon. The place was jam packed.
On another note. The teachers in the Kent District are on strike. So I don't know what is going to happen there. According to some of the moms in our town. The Kent schools are supposed to start on the 31st of August. YIKES! Mimi's school starts on the 2nd of September.
