Back to School




It has taken me a couple of weeks to get to this post - but I have to keep up the tradition of sharing pictures of my kids on their first day of school.

 Now please don't judge the quality of these photos.  My boys were so excited to get to school that I could barely get them to delay leaving long enough for me to get a picture.  I also want to mention that I do wipe down my door from time to time - but our yard is not landscaped yet, so the dirt is a constant battle I am fighting right now - both on my door and in my entry. I can't wait to get some grass.  Anyway - - on to the real reason for this post.



Dallin is in sixth grade.  His teacher is Mr. Brinton and he is loving being in his class.


Thomas is in fifth grade.  His teacher is Ms. Thatcher.  She is a new teacher this year, but she teaches in the same room that Jeremy taught in when he taught at that school, so Thomas can already say he has spent more time in his classroom than his teacher has.  How many kids can say that?


Jack is in third grade.  His teacher is Mrs. Birtcher.  Thomas had her for second and third grade since she moved grades with her class.  She is Thomas's all time favorite teacher, and I know that Jack will love being in her class too.


Drake is in first grade.  His teacher is Ms. Zinn.  She is a seasoned teacher and really nice.  Jeremy says she does a fabulous job, so we are excited that Drake is in her class.  He is loving being at school all day.


Tad started preschool last week.


He is going to the same preschool that all his big brothers attended.  I know he will love it as much as they did.

After I dropped Tad off at his first day of preschool, I headed straight to the walking path and took a walk on it by myself for the first time in twelve years.  It felt really weird to be alone with no stroller to push.  I am not sure if I liked it.  I miss my little boys!!

Here's hoping for another great year guys!!
