Back 2 School


I'm always torn when this time of year rolls around. I really like the sleeping in, lazy, play-all-day, head to the pool, stay up late days of summer...but I also really like the structure and schedules that come with being in school. So I was torn last week when I had to send everyone back to school. This year I have one in college, one in high school, one in Junior High and the two littlest are in Elementary School. When did my kids grow up? So far the excitement is still there and they are willing to get up early and leave on time - I wonder how long it will take for the "sleeping in" and "faking sick" days to start?

These are the only two I got a picture of this year - Kam didn't want me snapping her picture in front of the Jr. High and Rylee left too early. But look how cute these two are! We're BACK TO SCHOOL!

They are so cute! I'm with you... already missing the sleeping in and going to the pool...but I do like to be on a schedule too. Happy Back to School!

By the way...is anyone on your side of the fam a seminary principal in St. George? Somebody we know met them and they knew all about Jared but we don't know anyone. Just curious.

So cute! And I love that they can ride their bikes to school. Most of our schools are on busy streets, not in neighborhoods, so we don't have that option. Oh, and I have the same problems getting my older kids pictures done on the first day, so don't feel bad! Where is Brad going to college?

So darling! Can't believe how grown up Coleman is! I also can't believe he is already in second grade! Hope they all are loving school already!

I can still, SO EASILY, picture Lex in her high chair at your mom and dad's house. And little Coley's hands when he was a baby. You remember - the biggest, little hands ever made?!

HOW ARE THESE KIDS SOOO OLD?!

Happy First Day of School!

Love you guys!
