First day of school

Backpacks... check

Lunches... check

Gifts for the elementary school teachers... check
We broke tradition this year. We usually bring the biggest apple we can find on the 1st day of school but I found these cute cups at Home Goods and couldn't resist filling them with Tinas delicious Oreo Truffles.

First day of school pictures... check
Rylee - 11th

Cassidy - 9th

Notice that it is still dark. Rylee and Cassidy are practicing for seminary by going to a 1st day of school breakfast at 6:30 in the morning.
Camryn - 6th

Hudson - 4th

Devyn - 1st

Pics with cousins... Hudson and Sabrina - 4th graders

Devyn and Tabitha - 1st graders

Hudson took off with his buddies as soon as we got to the school. He's getting so independent.

And there were a few tears as Devyn was passed on to the teacher.

But everyone had a great day and is adjusting to new schools and scheduals.
Here's to the first steps of the new school year.

It is amazing how time flies! Everyone looks great. I love Devyn's hair--makes her look like the big girl she is, going into grade one. Love the cousin pics, too. I love, love, love these kids (and their awesome parents, too!) p-Sue
