Five kids. Three schools. Bring it on!

Here we go!  

As always, summer FLEW by and we're back in school 

leaving the lazy, mostly schedule free days behind us. 

There was energy in the air.  

These five were excited, almost giddy to meet up with friends and get back into the routine of things!

Aubrey said she was "nervous and excited".  She started 7th grade and left the charter school where she has been since kindergarten to attend our neighborhood public middle school.

I was more nervous for her than when I dropped her at Kindergarten!  

She, however LOVED it!  Thought it was so much better than Elementary school.

 Andrew was just anxious to play any sport at recess with his friends again.

He seems to like his new teacher, so that's a bonus this early in the game!

Katelyn has an excellent teacher that we've had before and I'm sure will have a good year of 3rd grade!

 Megan also has a teacher our family has had before, and one of our very favorites. 

 She also has many of their closest girl friends in her class.

We could hardly get to school fast enough for this excited boy! 

Matthew finally is "big enough" to go to school with Dad and the kids every morning!

Here he is with his teachers, beautiful play group friends (Lily and Presley), and waiting in line.

Between dropping my baby off for five mornings a week and my oldest in Junior High...I cried a little.

But I couldn't be happier and feel more blessed with their schools and teachers.

It's going to be a great year!!
