So because of the way the district planned the calendar this year, our summer really actually is shorter than usual, but honestly, it feels like we didn't have a summer break at all!  I don't even feel out of practice for making lunches, tripping over backpacks, and pushing aside the papers that start piling up on my kitchen counter. 
A little first morning hot breakfast!
 
 And Lucy in spongy rollers....
 It is more quiet during the day, and the past two days I have already found it MUCH easier to get my work done.  So I guess school starting isn't all bad.  My two elementary-ers looked adorable on our walk to the "First Day Flag Ceremony".
  And I am SOOOO proud of Cameron.  He looks great in his new Vice President Sweater.  
I put up a few "Back to School" items on the mantel.  
I am working on a back to school bunting....more on that to come.
Before we know it, Halloween will be here!
