Back to School!

 We are excited for school to start.  I will definately miss the sleeping in, the anytime babysitters and the awesome helpers but we are all excited to get back in the swing of things! This is the last year these three get to walk to school together. It makes me sad to see them all growing up so fast!
Tyler starts 6th grade this year and is excited to finally be the oldest! Tyler also starts the year as the second tallest kid in school. He is growing up so fast and will probably pass me in height this year!
Josh is starting 3rd grade, which is the "biggest-of -the-lower-grades". He has a brand new teacher who is awesome! Josh is going to have a blast this year. Plus, doesn't he look so much smarter with those glasses?
Emily starts 2nd grade this year. She is super lucky to follow Josh through school. She loves her teacher and is so excited to have a few friends in her class. Good thing she has been working on her speed this summer, we don't want any boys catching this cutie at recess!
And... my cute Lucy starts preschool again at the "Apple school." She loves her new teacher and is looking forward to meeting new friends. At back to school night, her teacher told us she was excited to meet Lucy, she had heard so much about her from her previous teacher! They love Lucy at school. I only wish I could be the fly on the wall watching her!
Nate kept telling me it was his turn! I love the couple hours a day I get with JUST Nate. He is such a fun boy with so much personality! The things he says keeps me laughing all day!
 
We are so fortunate to be going back to a great school, with great teachers and great friends! I'm excited for this year. At our back to school dinner the kids all made goals for the upcoming year. I am proud of the things they are trying. We talked about our "I Betcha Can" attitudes while drinking our IBC's and enjoying the families favorite dinner: grilled brats, watermelon and smores!
