Back to School and Timmie's mother 2016

The 2015-16 school year is upon us.  It comes faster and faster each year.  Seems like yesterday that I was taking them all to Childcare and now I let them all drive.   

Abi a Junior, Andrew a Senior

Jack, 5th grade

Nick, 7th grade

This is after school.  We were playing Timmie's mother.  It is a long tradition that comes from a TV show, Lassie.  Back in the day, Timmie would come home from school every day and his mother would have him cookies or a snack and he would tell her about his day.  So, we like to play Timmie's mother on the first day of school and come home and have a treat and tell everyone about their day!  It was a super fast event today because I had Back To School night and had to get there early so I could get a parking spot close to the door...since I didnt want to walk forever!  Nick had football so he didn't get to play.  We had Klondyke bars...would choose something else next time...but they were better than nothing.

Nothing like the dishcloth sitting in the middle of the counter...

This is Nick getting on the bus for Junior high.  He is the only one to take the bus.  Andrew was suppose to, but I drove him since I was going to Grandma's house anyway and it was just up the street.  Nick gets to ride.  Brooke stalked him to make sure he got on the bus.  He said he could do it himself.
