First Day of School!

As a special treat before school started I took the kids to Old Navy and let them each pick their first day of school outfits. It was fun seeing what they all came up with :) Here's our big girl Hallie looking very stylish and all ready for 3rd Grade. She loves school and was so excited to head back. She also cut about 6 inches off her hair as part of her back to school look. She was really excited that her teacher this year has their room decorated with a cowboy theme. This is the 4th year in a row that has happened (maybe because we live in Spanish Fork?) and she loves it! She's also very excited to learn cursive and mutliplication this year.Here's Jake all ready for Kindergarten. He went with a super hero shirt (of course) and picked those pants because of the robot key chain hanging off them. (I mean really, does it get any better than that?) He's been ready to join Hallie at the "big kid school" for awhile now and finally has his chance! He was a little overwhelmed that first day but has loved it ever since and he and Hallie love riding their scooters home from school together every day.

And Mason Mason Mason......we really need to work on his picture face. After a lot of effort on my part to talk him into anything else from Old Navy, he went with another pair of navy blue sweat pants. To go along with the 4 other pair (all navy blue) he has in his drawer. He just adores his "furry pants" and only wears anything else (including shorts) when all of his sweat pants are dirty. He loves his school clothes though and wears this particular outfit to school at least once a week. He has enjoyed finally getting to go to his very own school and by the third day was asking me if he could just go live at Teacher's house (traitor!)
