After a busy summer of traveling, swimming, day camps, VBS, and more swimming - it was time to get back in the school routine a few weeks ago!
Although our routine is a little different this year as we now have a KINDERGARTENER in the house!
outside of Westview Elementary school on Ben's phase-in day
We love the fact that Ben gets to walk to school. It's usually a family outing, if everyone is awake!
riled up for the real first day
walking and chatting with co-kindergartener and neighbor
So far, even with a classroom switch two weeks in, Ben is enjoying school...although he has commented that kindergarten is "all work, work, work." He is in Mrs. LeMaster's class, and of course, his favorite thing about it is snack time ;), and recess, but if you can dig deep, he says he really likes writing workshop where they create their own books. He's already started his extracurricular activities with an afterschool Art Class and the Good News Club!
Miss Katie Beth started M/W/F preschool a few weeks later, in her second year at Christ Academy with Mrs. Paula. Most days so far she says she wants to stay with me, but then doesn't even look back to wave goodbye once we arrive!
So, happy back-to-school! Here's to new shoes, crisp mornings and economy-size jars of peanut butter!

Love evertything about these pictures! They're growing up so fast. Everyone seems so happy and excited about going to school, even if Will's only along for the ride!
love the " to economy size peanut butter" statement.
I chuckled when you said that. PB&J is the best go-to sandwich unless of course when you get to their school and the sign reads "NUT FREE CLASSROMM"
WTH! Really?! My first thought was What am I suppose to make ;)
LOVE ALL THE PICS! LOVE your blog!
