First Day of School

This is what a 3rd and 7th grader look like:



The night before Bryce gave both kids a blessing to start the year. Everyone was really excited for a fresh start. It's so nice to have shiny new folders and pointy pencils all lined up. Then there's always that hope that this year will be the best ever!

We got back on track with breakfast and scripture study.



And then we went outside to take some pictures. Tyce's school has uniforms--certain colors of polo shirts and nice pants. Mary can wear whatever she wants but somehow ended up matching her brother!





Both kids reported that they had great days. This my eighth "first day of school" and I'm realizing that there's a honeymoon period when everything's awesome and new. Those pre-whining, pre-homework-dreading days are some of my favorite days of the year.
