More first day

August 13, 2026

Everyone came home pretty happy after a successful first day at school. Maxwell’s day started off strong getting to ride with Jack…

I got to see Samantha during the day when I took cookies to her grade while they got their picture made. Perks of being the 6th Grade Committee Chair!

I didn’t see Spencer until 8pm that night after school, football and scouts! He had a very long day but was in good spirits and pretty chatty when I finally saw him. Love that kid.

I think a great start is indicative of a great year!

First Day

August 12, 2026

And they’re off! To three different schools this year!

Maxwell is at the High School in 10th grade. He got dropped off at Jack’s house early so they could ride together…

Spencer is at the Junior High in 8th grade…

and Samantha is a “senior” at MBE in 6th grade…

IMG_4308

I pulled up her first first day at MBE to compare to her last first day at MBE and just about died…

IMG_2060

She’s so cute I can’t stand it and her outfit matches K to 6th!

I know it’s going to be a great year for these three…

Last day

August 11, 2026

Yesterday was the last day of summer and it was a full and fun day – for Samantha at least! The boys were all football but Samantha spent the morning working on her end of summer tan…

IMG_4268

Then she got on her cute fit to go meet her teacher…

and to set up the lemonade stand with Emma! When you have our prime location, you have to answer when opportunity knocks!

Unfortunately the school also had an ice cream truck out there which brought some stiff competition. They still came out with a little chunk of change…some of which they promptly spent on the ice cream truck! ha!

So long, summer. You’ll be missed.

Do you ever miss something before it’s actually really gone? That’s how I feel about this summer. Time is flying too fast and I don’t want these golden days to end. But, back to school we go. Begrudgingly.
