First Day Of School!

It’s hard to believe summer is over yet again. We had an enjoyable summer spent at the water park, beach, library, zoo, children’s museum, local parks, and playing with friends. Today the kids were anxious to start school. Ethan is starting his last year of Elementary school. Hard to believe how old they are all getting. Ashton is starting 2nd grade and Lily started Kindergarten.

Lily is in afternoon Kindergarten and was still asleep when the boys left for school! So the first pictures are with the boys and then Lily will be later…..

We got Lily woke up, dressed, fed and ready to leave! She was so excited to go! She wanted to go to the bus stop 2 hours before it was time to go! We finally went out 10 minutes before!

I can’t believe my little girl is already 5! She is so sweet!

Jacob didn’t care when the boys left for school, but he was much more concerned to see his sister go. He gave her lots of hugs and kisses. So sweet!

I also love all the pictures. Your kiddos looked so adorable on their first day! I think the best shots are the ones of Lily! You can see every bit of her emotion while she's waiting for the bus. Too cute!

So special!!!!! Ethan is growing tall and older fast. Ashton is close behind, but Ethan is shooting up. Lily is such a sweet doll. Going to school is such an adventure for these little ones. Such a special family. Lots of love and special times. Love you all lots and lots.
