let the countdown begin

The kids will begin the new school year in a mere 6 days.  That's right folks...my kids are still on Summer Vacation! And what a wonderful vacation it has been.  We are working on squeezing every last bit out of this summer by making plans for the Labor Day weekend.  And now that Evan has received the ok from his ENT, we will be able to revisit the pool before it closes for the season.

Hana will be at a brand spanking new school- Ronald Reagan Middle School.  We went to her orientation this afternoon and I snapped a couple pictures on my phone {trying not to embarass her of course}.  She's most excited about her locker and the clubs.  We walked the halls and found her homeroom, met the teacher, found her locker, and even successfully opened it.  I am nervous but still very excited for her.


Evan will be back at J.W. Alvey for third grade.  He already found out he'll have at least two friends from his third grade class.  I have no doubt that he'll jump right in and work hard this year.  He's now eligible to participate in some clubs that only third graders and above are allowed to do so I know he's going to do them.

We wish all our friends and family a GREAT school year!  Now I'm off to try and get the kids to bed a little earlier than usual.  Wish me luck.
