Back To School

Today is the first day of school and I can't believe it. Where did the summer go? The kids were up and ready before I even went in to wake them up this morning. We did our usual first day routine where we walk Tyler to the bus stop so we can take pictures there and then all 4 of us parents drive to school so we can take pictures of her getting off the bus..... and then we do it again with Tanner. I wonder how many more years we will be able to do this before they are embarrassed of us??? Tyler could have done everything with out us this morning and been totally fine. She found her line right away and even had time to help the other kids find their classes. She was more worried about finding her friends. Tanner was anxious ALL morning! By 10:00 he was asking for lunch so that he could get ready for the bus. I don't think I have ever seen Tanner so excited. I thought I would make it..... but I had a little bit of a melt down on the way to school. I don't know if I am having a difficult time this year because Tyler is in 2nd grade.... or Tanner is starting kindergarten? My babies are growing up.......

Oh man Tanner cracks me up. I love their first day of school outfits - that's the best part of back to school, isn't it?!
