Back to school

I am going to start blogging on my phone as a way to keep blogging on a regular basis. My computer is about dead to me. I need to get my pictures off it before it takes it finally breathes and croaks on me. We will see how this works and do plan to get out summer on the blog as well! 

Today is the day summer is coming to an end and the kids go back to school! The weather is full on pouring to remind me fall is upon us. I love summer like it is my happy time of the year. There's not much I look forward to about fall besides getting back into a routine. I had to babysit this morning so we got everything ready to go last night...lunches made, papers signed, backpacks packed, and Jordan's clothes all laid out. I won't get to be apart of his first day send off for the first time but I know Josh is able to handle it...just hard. I did get to see Michelle before she headed off to the bus stop. Since I know the first day of school is no time to get good pics I took both the kids out individually to take some back to school pictures. I wanted to take them again to do some together ones but we will wait a bit for that. Took bribery just to do the first round. Jordan is easier with a kids meal and mini blizzard from DQ. Michelle required makeup and ice cream but totally worth it to me. 

First off is Michelle who is a freshman this year in high school!! Man time is going fast! Need to start a graduation board on Pinterest...it will be here way before I am ready!! Michelle was excited for school but a little nervous about finding all her classes. She texted me wishing she had worn a coat! She has to walk outside to go from class to class! Hope she remembers that in the future fall days to come! 

Jordan is off to 3rd grade. As of early this morning he was not excited at all. He is getting to that age were he realizes school is not all coloring and blocks lol. He got to go meet his teacher yesterday and take all his supplies. They find their desk, see who sits around them and bring home the first load of paperwork. I was excited to find out Jordan got the teacher I was hoping for Mr. De Mann. I really hope he has a better start this year then last. 

Here's to getting into the new busy season that is back to school time!
