well, everyone is happy after Day One of the new school year!
Jordan left first (which really won't happen again all year) at about 7:45 and a friend took this photo at the corner of the neighborhood where they wait for the bus. Jzo is the one in the white sweatshirt. Yes, it started POURING rain right as the bus was arriving/loading. Crazy for Sept. 4th! He's in 6th grade this year, and at our schools, that is "big man on campus" as it's still elementary till Jr. High starts with 7th grade.
Being big 8th and 9th graders this year, Ryker and Marina didn't have to get to school till 11:30 and only had 15 minutes of each of their 6 classes plus "homeroom" today... during their under 3 hour day. The 'poor' 7th graders at their school had to show up at 7:40, and do a full day.
The report, once everyone got home was good. Good teachers, friends in each class (for the most part) and overall, a nice bit of enthusiasm for the coming year of school. We enjoyed a nice "family dinner night" which we hope to experience most Tues./Thurs. this season.
Next week, we start up with all the activities on M/W/F/Sat. and it's a wild season with dance, swimming, soccer, fall ball and of course I'll be teaching art classes too, so we're certainly not going to be bored!

Jordan looks like a nice kid with a cute smile and bright eyes. I hope the three of them have an excellent school year.
Now you need to post pictures of the "big kids."
