Looking good, Cory and Bruno!!!

Bruno's First Day of Preschool

Max in his uniform, eating the gingerbread man! His class went through the school looking for the gingerbread man...they found lots of crumbs, but no gingerbread man!! A crafty way of getting the K's to visit all the classrooms!! We are so impressed with the school! Great job Mrs. Simmons!!!


Bruno is 3, as his shirt proclaims!! At Preschool with Max and Pietro, and in class. We can't believe Bruno is already at school.
