First Day of School for My TWO Boys!

Can you believe it? That time of year has come again, and just in the nick of time! It has been a really fun summer, with unplanned trips and time away with the Gramma's for the boys. But now we're back into a brand new school year full of exciting new things.

Jude started the 2nd grade and has a lot of friends from kinder. and 1st grades in his class. This is great since last year he didn't have one person he knew in his class (a drawback of having almost 1000 kids in your ELEMENTARY SCHOOL!) He also gets to walk this year to and from school with his best friends, Drew & Jaden. He's getting so BIG!

So, here Jude is ready to head out!

In the rain, of course!

Ethan's started kindergarten this afternoon (two days after Jude) for PM kinder. I like how our school does it; they start the kindergartner's 1 or 2 days after everyone else so they don't get caught up in the "first day of school" hubbub. I say 1 or 2 days after because full and morning half day-ers started 1 day later, but the afternoon half day-ers started 2 days later because they don't go to school on Wednesdays.. and the 2nd day of school was a Wednesday. So if you're not confused then there you go, and if you are... oh well!

Here Ethan is, ready to go!

He set up this shot saying, "Mommy, I want to take the picture over here with the camera set up on the light post." Nice shot, Sweeetie!

Greyson wanted in on the shots too! He told me he's going to school on Saturday.

Waiting for everyone to arrive.

He was really excited when his teacher, Mrs. Perry, came out. He got in line first to go to his classroom.

And of course, it wouldn't be true Ethan style if he didn't prance off to class!

Way to go my TWO Grand Ridge Grizzlies!
