Scooting to School

Wednesday morning our alarm went off bright and early. It was the signal that summer was officially over and it was back to the "old grind"! No more sleepin' in and no more lazy days sittin' poolside! It's now time for our fall activities to begin and our days to be filled with homework and soccer practices;).

Corban started the second grade this year.

I can't believe I have a second grader!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He is always a little apprehensive at the start of a new year, but getting the teacher he wanted made the beginning of school a little easier.

Every second grader hopes to get Mr. B! He's the only male teacher in the school and used to be a clown before becoming a teacher. That will give you a little insight into what kind of personality Mr. B has!

He seems like a ton of fun and I am praying this is going to be a GREAT year for Cor!

"A" will be a BIG kindergartner this year, but our county has the staggered start program, so her first day of school isn't until Monday. She is super excited and can't wait to be at school with Corban!


She is keeping busy though with several pre-school get togethers.

It's been a GREAT way for her to get to know other girls who will also start school this year too!

I know God has big things planned for both "A" and Cor this year and I can't wait to see how much they grow, learn, and mature!
Looking forward and trusting Him for a GREAT year!!!
