First Day of School 2018

It’s true.

Yesterday was our first day of school!!

Since we really keep at “school” like activities all summer long, it seems a little bit wrong to say “it was the first day of school.”

There is a huge shift in our school day come August, though!

Full time school is a much bigger thing!

We started the day yesterday with tradition.

I am sure you know first day of school tradition revolves around FOOD!

We are so predictable.

We had a special breakfast yesterday, thanks to Addie Mae who made the kiddos some donuts!

Another first day of school tradition is having a photo taken in front of the pie safe.

We have been taking first day photos in front of this cabinet since 2009!

First is Eliza Claire, six years old and in the first grade.

Next is Tate Owen, seven years old and in the 1st grade.

Then there is Lane Stevan, 10 years old and in the 5th grade.

Last, but never least, is Chad Ryan, 14 years old and in the 9th grade.

I would say that is one very good looking class of students!

And, YES, I have a high schooler again!!

I spent hours upon hours last week and over the weekend getting things ready for these cute kiddos – which was a BLAST!

I might be a bit of an organization and book freak!!

We are all looking forward to this school year very much!

The kiddos excitement for it all made my heart SO FULL.

Tate came running up the stairs this morning after his Daddy woke him up saying, “I am excited about school! I am excited about hand writing! I AM READY FOR ANYTHING, MOM!!”

Well, if that doesn’t do my heart good, I don’t know what will!

School year 2018-2019, you are off to a great start!

Here’s to many more days full of fun, excitement, and lots of learning!

    Indeed, one very good looking class of students! It’s so sweet to see the little ones reading books. Wasn’t it just yesterday when you were posting pictures of them learning their letters?

    We school Sept to June, so we still have a couple of weeks before our school officially starts, though some the boys’ AP online classes start this and next week.

    Wishing you a wonderful and very successful school year!
