First Day of School 2016!

And just like that the summer is OVER! 

We were up bright and early this morning for our first day of school. This was by far the fastest summer has ever flown by. I've been dreading this day for weeks, but despite my dread the kids were excited and ready to go this morning.

 

First day of 2nd grade. 

His teacher is Mrs. Evans.

 

First day of 5th grade. The first day of her last year of elementary school.

Her homeroom teacher is Mrs. Tippins, which is the homeroom teacher Sydney had. She will have all the 5th grade teachers though because they switch classrooms for every subject. 

 I had to post this. I spy Bryce.

I ended up walking the kids into school this morning because I had to drop off Bryce's meds and let me tell you, they were getting those kids pumped up for the first day. They had music blasting and a bear mascot dancing around taking pictures with the kids. We have a new principal this year and he was out with his selfie stick taking photos with the kids as they came in. I really wish I would have taken pictures, but I wasn't expecting such fun walking into school. I am really excited about the new principal and I'm thinking we are going to have a fantastic year. 

 

First day of 8th grade. Her first day of the last year of middle school, which is pretty hard to believe. She is on Team 8D, which is Lake Arrowhead. She is also taking 2 high school classes this year. Between school and soccer this girl will be very busy, but I have complete confidence that she is going to kill it this year. 

I always get a little down after school starts because I really enjoy having the kids home. Even on the days they drive me crazy! Here's to a great school year that I'm sure will fly by.
