I have to be honest...I have been dreading back to school. Maybe it's because of the INSANELY early start time here in TX (she has to be there 7:45). Maybe it's because I start feeling more like a shuttle bus between school, preschool, tumbling, ballet, etc. Maybe it's because my kids kind of turn into little gremlins when they come home (all of the sudden talking back, sour attitudes, and melt downs are much more prevalent). But maybe it's because I truly miss them. This summer Natali and Isaac have really learned how to play together really well. Even allowing Mr. Fudge to join in on their together time. It's one of those things that melts your heart as a mom.
But despite all that, school was coming and it was time to get ready. We had a back to school dinner. Totally the most unhealthy thing I have ever feed my kids...donuts and their choice of sugary cold cereal (mother of the year award...yes please!).
I introduced the new theme for the year.....HAPPINESS/BE HAPPY.
And we concluded the evening with a back to school FASHION SHOW. Everyone loved it.
Spencer's going for the "pants are optional"look. It works for him.
The last thing we did was back to school blessings. It was a very sweet moment. After Natali and Isaac, Spencer didn't even hesitate as he jumped off the couch and climbed up into the chair. Pretty cute stuff! I also asked for as well, it brought a lot of much needed comfort and peace.
So I guess...READY OR NOT...another school year...here we come!

I love that you do a theme every year. And every year I say to myself, "I'm going to do that but it will have to wait until next year!" guess what it's next year and I'm saying it again. Oh well. I loved your fashion show especially Isaac. No hat, hat, new hat! You have such cute kids. I can't get over how much they've grown in the last year. Miss you guys.
haha, pants are optional. :) What a guy! Love your little fashion divas (and...uh...divos? Studs? little men?) They're cuties for sure! And I so know what you mean about being a shuttle. It's exhausting! whew!!!
What is it with school starting at 7:45?!?!? That is when Hannah's starts and and I do not like it!!! Your fashion show is AWESOME!!! What a great idea!!!
