School is in Session!

So Kenzie had asked for a shopping spree (within reasonable limits), pedicure and manicure for her birthday. She got a coupon for her request and redeemed it this past Saturday. We had such a great time together! We shopped until we dropped - right into a salon chair for some pampering!



Kenzie and I thought it was a great way to get ready for school! :)



Kenzie always gets excited for school - more for the social aspect than anything, I think.

And Kyler, well he's usually not so excited about school. With that being said, he did show some excitement this year - on to bigger and better things being in middle school. I suppose.



Collin, Kenzie, and Kyler catch the bus at 7:00am. Hmmm, isn't the bus stop supposed to be a calm place to be? :)



Notice that Kyler was the only one to stop and look back at me for a picture - he loves me!!



Then, it was time for the younger kids.

Kavan was excited about school, he just kept saying, "Oh, I can't wait! I hope I see McKenna!"



Karlee wanted to leave for the bus stop 30 minutes before need be. She's excited about school because of the teachers, all the supplies, her friends, and the clothes - now if we could just get her excited about the work! :)



Cade, Kavan, Karlee, and Samantha catch the bus at 7:50am. And aren't they cute?! Goodness, I love them!



It was Cade's first day of kindergarten - and I'm not sure who was more nervous? I think they both ended up having a good day! :)



Ali's goodbye kiss. So cute!



And they're off!





"How was your day at school?"

Kenzie - "Great! I like my teachers, well not my Spanish teacher so much. But today we made gum sculptures. Yep! In Science, yep!"

Kyler - "It was sooooo boring! My teachers are nice, though. And I have to stand on my tip toes to open my locker."

Karlee - "Great! I like my teacher a lot, and you should see my binder, and Paul has long hair now, and I saw Abby. I have to put my homework folder in my mail slot and there is homework tonight, but it's yours. You have to sign papers. and I have to work on my spelling contract but I don't have the list yet, so maybe tomorrow I'll get the list." (All at 100 mph.) :)

Kavan - "Good! I saw McKenna! And my teacher didn't yell, neither did the helper teacher. They're nice!"



Well, back to lunch making!!!
