Happy Days are Here Again!

Remember this?
This year Todd went right through the school gates without a care in the world!

Kylee grabbed her backpack too.
She can't wait till next year.
Secretly, I can't wait either!
No kids all day will be heaven.

"Come on mom! Be done already!"


I bought him a new backpack, but he insisted on his old one from last year.
So, the old backpack returned with him!
He's been asking me when he's going back to school.
I think he was just excited to bring his lunch box and eat at school.
There will be no hot lunches for us!
Not because I don't enjoy a good hot lunch, but he won't eat anything on the menu!
So, we'll be brown baggin'.
Probably less expensive too and you know how I like to pinch my pennies.


He was mostly excited to see his best buddy Cade.
I was just excited to not do the kindergarten half day pickup again.
Last year was brutal that way.
Another year is underway.
When did I get old enough to have a 1st grader?

Oh I am so jealous! No kids for you! Can't wait for that! Cute pics girl! You can't believe you have a 1st grader, I can't believe I have a 4th grader! Lol! They grow up so fast! And yes, we are becoming old farts! lol

Since your brown baggin' and pinchin' your pennies. Have you invested in a meat slicer? Email me if you want a link to one. They run about 1oo bucks...but you can slice all of your veggies and meats yourself. I noticed a HUGE difference in price when I started using this bad boy!...just a thought...and what a cutie you have there!

I love when they get to first and you aren't always having to go pick them up. How fun though! I always loved first days growing up.
