Back to School

Getting ready for back to school with boys isn't a big deal. I got school supplies for Carson one night while shopping at Kroger (without him because he doesn't care). After school started, Miles needed four things. It's really just shoes and haircuts. We had a very hard time finding shoes for Carson because he's a 9 year old with man sized feet. We ended up getting Brooks in a women's size 9. Ms. Jaime spoiled Carson with washing his hair.

Carson's open house was come & go this year and it was so much better. Parking was a breeze and it wasn't crowded.

We stopped in for a few minutes to drop off supplies and meet his homeroom teacher, Ms. Cindy. She was so sweet to talk to him and show him around the room. She asked him what he'd been up this to summer and he said, "Chilling at home". Never mind flying for the first time, playing baseball, or having an epic 9th birthday to name a few things. He methodically organized his school supplies in his cubby before we left. 

We stopped in to meet his swap teacher, Ms. Carrie. She moved up from second grade and was so excited to see Carson. It made his night.

Seeing friends is always a highlight of open house night.

These two are peas in a pod and hope every year they they will be in the same class. So far it hasn't happened.

He loved seeing his kindergarten teacher. We went to visit his second grader teacher too, but I forgot to take a picture. He's had the very best teachers every year.

Sophomore year.

Third grade.

They were both mostly glad to be back in school. It was a great first week and we are back in the swing of things.
