School Days

School started last week here in Wisconsin.

Mr. Will is now in 2nd grade and Grace is at a new school (Intermediate) for 5th grade.

Will was happy to be back and loves his teacher.

 

After two weeks, we've settled into the routine of homework and after school activities
pretty well.
And Grace has her first 'official' locker ever,
which she's decorated quite nicely.
She's done great with this transition to a different school, all new teachers
and principal.
We couldn't be more proud of her!

I'm way behind on blogging but hope to get caught up next week.

36/52 - school days

(Arriving home from school)

 I'm playing catch up with my weekly photo project...I'm about a week behind so will post 2 this week.

School is going great for everyone. (Grace, Will and me).
Both kids love their teachers and school. I was a little worried about Will and how he'd do but he's doing great with full day Kindergarten and has reported to me he even fell asleep for a while during rest time.

My house is very quiet during the day but I've been able to get a lot of editing done for clients.
It's starting to feel like Fall and getting down into the 30's at night this week!

35/52 - first day of school

Last month we were busy getting ready with new backpacks, school supplies,

some school clothes and shoes.

Yesterday they were ready...more than ready I thought.

I thought I was too until the time of the drop off.

Mama got a little teary (but I didn't think they could tell).

Grace and Will had awesome first days.

I couldn't be prouder and especially of Will because it's full day

Kindergarten here. It's kind of a long day for a little guy.

Here's to a wonderful school year for these two!!

And those red shoes that light up were completely Will's choice!
