First Day of School

 I love school!  When I was growing up I always loved it, especially the first day of school.  I try to make it special for my kids so they have as good of memories of it as I did.  ABC pancakes are a must at our house, and these egg owls were a hit as well.  

 I tried to skip ABC pancakes one year, and got in very big trouble.  I do not try that any more :)

 We always do a back to school dinner too. This year was a little crazy as we had to have it before Lincoln had football.  Palmer was at after school football practice and dad wasn't home from work yet.  It was crazy.  But we still had a good time.

I sure love this little family of mine.  Being a mom is the best.

Back to School Pictures 2017

 I am so grateful that my boys are still letting me take Back to School pictures of them.  I'm not sure how much longer that will last, but I will take it while I can.  I can't believe that we will have 3 middle school kids this year!

 Hunter was determined to have his frog in our pictures.  It made everything really funny.  

 McKay was heading to a new elementary school this year and for the first time he wasn't with an older brother.  He was so nervous!

 I have to say, boys are really fun.  It has been so fun having a sort of wild backyard for them to play in!
