Hello Pencils... Hello Books...

Wow!  Another summer is gone and another school year is in session.  Where does the time go?  I swear every time I turn around, I feel another year has passed!  We sure had a great summer, and we are sad it see it go.  Good bye to pool days that turn into cook outs, staying out until it gets dark to catch lightning bugs, and having sleep overs on week nights... Hello to schedules, bedtimes, and homework!  I can't believe another school year has arrived.  I officially have a 4th Grader... a 1st Grader... and a PK3 child!!!  Parker has Mrs. Hynes this year.  She's a new teacher to Lakeland and we've heard wonderful things about her!  Ava has Mrs. Stevens.  She seems very sweet and Ava is so excited because her sweet friend Riley is in her class this year.  Riley and Ava went to MDO together at Trinity Baptist, and I am wonderful friends with her mom Lisa-so I think we were ALL very excited to be in the same class this year!  And Lily started at Immanuel Lutheran this year.  This is where I went to school from Kindergarten through Eighth Grade.  So many of the same faces are still there... and it feels like home.  Lily has Mrs. Brenda this year and it is so funny because I also had Mrs. Brenda when I went there.  Crazy I know!  I don't think she's changed at all since I've had her and I know Lily is in wonderful, caring hands!!! :)  It's going to be a great school year!!

On Lily's first day!  :)

I think it's safe to say... she's happy!

Such a big girl and SO excited about her new school!

Goodness... she's getting so big!

Not my "Little Man" any more... Growing up so fast!

My sweet Ava... all smiles and READY to go!


Ready to make the walk... but not ready to see them go!

Dad and his crew!  :) 
In case I fail to mention... Manley is such a GREAT daddy!  We are all blessed to have him!

Here's hoping for a great 2010-2011 School Year!!!!
