First Days of School

Summer seemed to go by way to fast this year! We didn't fit in ALL the fun things we had planned to do and if you ask Brooke and Lexy we didn't go to the pool NEAR enough!

Brooke started her 7th grade year last Thursday (August 14, 2008), she was excited but very nervous. Mackenzie stayed the night so they could walk to school together the first day. I can't believe how fast she is growing up on me...seems like just yesterday that I was taking her to preschool :-(

Here's Brooke on her first day and Brooke & Mack...



















I was already SO stressed out about sending Lexy to her first day of preschool this morning and then the morning had to get worse! The bus came 15 min. earlier than I was told so I had to send it on and get the little ones up so that I could take Lexy to school. After calling the bus barn I found out that because of how many kids they have to pick up, Lexy will be picked up between 6:30am and 6:40am every morning and then sit on the bus for over an hour before being taken to school...I can't do that to her (or me, I would be worried out of my mind!). So I guess the only other alternative is for me to get everyone up each morning and take her...oh the life of a mom!!!
