Back To School the first day

Today was the first day back to school at Virginia Ave Elementary school.
Asha Started 2ND grade in Mrs. Camps class. Bryce Started Kindergarten in Mrs. Munzlinger's class.
Now Bryce and Asha get to Attend school together in the same school. They were so excited last night. We all got ready for the big day today. Made sure uniforms, socks, and shoes were laid out and ready to go. The kids took night showers so they would be clean and fresh. They brushed teeth, said prayer, and Bryan gave each of the kids the usual and very special blessing for the school year. Those blessings are always special and we couldn't go with out them. Thanks Daddy!
This Morning was a little tough to get up. Not for the kids but for Bryan and I. I really couldn't sleep to well last night and I wanted to stay in bed a little longer. We got up at 6:30 and were out the door by 7:15.
The kids had breakfast in the school cafeteria and headed for their classroom when the bell rang.
Bryan and I were glad to see the teachers were pretty nice and super friendly. We all hope it will be a great school year. Here are some pictures of this morning .
After we dropped off the kids, Bryan and I went to Dennys for breakfast. This is our yearly tradition on each first day of school. It was fun going on a little date with him.

Hello! It is 3:07pm.

I picked up the kids from school a few hours ago and I wanted to post each of the kid's day highlights at school to remember this day.

Bryce:

• He met new friends and he is so excited that he found a friend that had chinese eyes.
• There is a kid in his class that was smiling at everyone. Bryce thought this was funny
• He got to color a picture about a boy going to school holding a book and he colored the book red because this is mommy's favorite color. Thanks Bryce ;)
• He went to recess and went down the slide many times.
• He found a big tree in the play ground and called it the Monster tree. It has a big hole in its trunk. "Bats live in the hole" he says.
• In his classroom he got to play with clay and made a two headed human.
