Back to School - Back to School!

As Billy Madison sings....Back to School, Back to School! The new school year started fast - where does summer go?! My children are growing up too quickly, and quickly trying to leave me in their dust. This school year we have a new high schooler, a middle schooler, and two still at the elementary school.

Keagan: 9th grade

Finn: 7th grade

Mac: 3rd grade

Ivy: 2nd grade

scouring the mail for her teacher postcard!

trying to figure out what it says! She can read basic things, but she was trying really hard to read this and find who her teacher was

Back to School Pool Party at Emery York's!

left-handed kids struggle with lots of things right-handers take for granted: lockers are one of them

Lady Marshal's also had soccer practice right before open house - they weren't scared of each other's stink

ran into friends as they made their way into school!

Josh took the boys - I asked for pictures and this is what I got...

Finn looks evil.

a perk of working in the schools is I get to see my girls in their element on a daily basis. I couldn't help but snap this picture as they walked towards me after school during the first week.
