He wouldn’t  get in the pic, afraid someone he knew may see him…lol.  This was my first rainy day first day of school pics ever…guess I’ve been lucky all these years.

Still so hard to believe that he is a freshman…wow!!!!

Wasn’t raining when Matthew left so we got a few pics.  He opted to skip the bus as he wanted to be driven on the first day… so this is his “bus” pic

started lightly raining when Max left, but we managed to get a few pics… he was pretty excited, as he is in 5th grade this year, aka “the top dogs” of the school

Sydney started the following day, as Kindergarten has 2 transition days.

Lanie’s nightgown

another successful trip…and no she didn’t get the nightgown too.  She was just “matching” her.

Niketown, as Shawn wanted to get the newly released Man U soccer Jersey.  Unfortunately they were out of his size, it released a few days before we were there, but he didn’t walk away empty handed…he got a pretty cool shirt.

not sure why she wanted her pic with him, but hey, whatever!

and I thought this light fixture was cool… the best angle would’ve been laying on the floor, directly underneath it but….yeah, the family wouldn’t let me do it.  Plus, it was the entry way during lunch hour…and I didn’t feel like getting stepped on, so this angle will have to do.
