.....and the first day of school, BOTH days over and done. These pics were taken this morning as we waited for the bus (yay, no more driving them to school!). By the way, 7am is an ungodly time of the day to be awake and coffee-less. Keep that in mind when viewing these slightly blurry pics. It really was a miracle I was able to function at all. :)
I tried to make the last day of summer vacation a really special day for the kids, and I think I succeeded. After lunch yesterday, we took Alex for a haircut, and then.....we went to the PARK!! We hadn't been to this particular park in years, and the kids LOVED it. Note to self: When we go again, do NOT wear your fake Croc shoes, lest you get stabbed repeatedly by the mulch again.
At one point, Alex said he was getting a little bored, so I asked him if he'd like to make a video (since I just happened to have my trusty Flip Video in my pocket). He was too thrilled to shoot a documentary on Maggie and Jacob...I'll have to edit it for length and post it here in the next month or so. :)
Remind me to tell you about the awesome clothing deal I scored over the weekend!! Gotta get to bed, I think I'm a crack-of-dawn riser now!
Crap.

You are so funny!!!!!!!!
I'm so glad you are at blogger so I can read you again.
Your children are beautiful-I have a pain, not my back (see blog) because it feels like yesterday my little ones were little ones. My youngest is 29 this month and 6'4.
How I miss them....
So glad to see the fun you created with them/for them. The memories will last a long, long time. Good job!
Hugs,
Pam

You got terrific shots! I especially love the one you took of your daughter from behind! Your coffeeless self did pretty darn good!!!
How did they like their first day? Are they making friends quickly? Was Maggie okay with her book bag? Can I come up with any more questions?
