Seagate Elementary Day at McDonalds

This was a first, as is a lot of things we are experiencing this year with Rachel going into public school. One of the first things I noticed was that they no longer call it "PTA". It's now "PTO", and I'm the only dad there - which is a totally different post.

Rachel made friends with a little girl named Kanti the very first day of school. Kanti's mom couldn't make it to McDonalds night, so we picked her up and off we went.

It was nice to meet all the other parents and to see Rachel's teacher out of the classroom environment.

Okay - I tried to stay away from the food there, but with everyone eating - it was getting difficult to resist. So I rationalized that "fries" wouldn't be "so" bad - and then it was the ice cream... well, they called it yogurt and it had fruit on top. In any case it was pure sugar and had little taste to it.

After we ate and chatted with Rachel's teacher, who came by for a photo op, we mingled with the other families and I took some pictures of the kids. So cute!
