We’re back to school and already missing lazy summer days!
Pool days….


Lake days…

Long summer days with nothing to do.

I’m sure we’ll all be appreciating the routine soon but I sure do love summer with these three.

A few more back to school things I wanted to remember…
Spartan Day for Maxwell where he got to tour the junior high, practice doing his locker combo, and get all of his supplies…

Lots of supplies!

Several of the boys in Spencer’s grade got together for ice cream after meet the teacher last week. Love this crew of boys…


Samantha’s teacher sent this picture from the first day!

It’s going to be a good year, I just know it!
Thankfully everyone came home with big smiles after the first day of school! This one came running up the driveway first and the first thing she said was “I love my class!” Hooray!!


This one walked up a minute later and gave me a thumbs up which is a sign of a great day!

Of course they had some surprises waiting for them. π


Maxwell finally made it home at 6:15 after football practice and he also had great reports. He said his math teacher is really nice and his schedule wasn’t that hard to figure out. So thankful it was a fantastic first day all around!
Happy birthday Granddaddy! We love you!
Back to school! Yesterday was the first day of school and it all went great. Maxwell had to wear his football jersey but was pretty excited about it all…and maybe a little nervous about the logistics of the day and finding his way around the Junior High.

Spencer was pumped to be in a class with all of his best friends in 5th grade…

and Samantha can’t wait to shine in 3rd grade!

The junior high carpool left first…

and then the other two were off and running with buddies.



Hoping for the very best year for all three of them!

Let’s go!
I wish summer wouldn’t end but it’s back to school today! We went up to the Junior High on Tuesday and got Maxwell’s locker all set up…


He’s ready for a new adventure in 7th grade!
Yesterday we met our teachers in elementary and these two had fresh haircuts for it!


It was a rainy afternoon but that didn’t stop us…

we went to Samantha’s classes first and met her homeroom teacher, Ms. Symons…

and her other teacher, Ms. Burgess.

They are both new to the school and seem wonderful! Samantha is excited to be back in class with her buddy again…

It’s going to be a great year in 3rd grade!
We then met all of the 5th grade teachers…and didn’t get a picture with a single one! After a little switcheroo, Spencer is very happy to be in Mr. Andrews class with many of his best friends! Spencer was really happy to see his best bud in the hallway…

and then got surrounded by plenty of girls…ha!

It is definitely going to be a fantastic year in 5th grade!
Back to school, back to routine!
