This year was one of the first years the Moseman family did not go to Kiawah Island for our family vacation. I was pretty sad about that, but we tested out a new location in North Carolina. It was an area near Lake Toxaway and a great house within driving distance of lots of great hiking, lots of great drinking and lots of great swimming and hanging out with family time.
Almost 1 week after we went on vacation, Hazel started Kindergarten at Crieve Hall Elementary. Although I can't say I was surprised, Hazel crushed her first day at school and continues to do so. We live sooooo close to the school that we *should* walk to school everyday and true to form, we have not walked (the entire way) once. Very INFREQUENTLY, I can convince Hazel to walk from Arlo's daycare, in which, a whole parking lot separates the daycare from the school. Hazel's Kindergarten teachers are Ms. McAvee and Ms. Housholder -- each teaches part-time (roughly 2.5 days/week). It seemed a bit weird at first, but Hazel seems to have adjusted to it just fine.
