Back to School

Man, this house is quiet. Both kids got themselves up this morning, with alarms, and got ready for their first day of school, without any problem. Wonder how long that will last. My fifth grader. I offered to trim her bangs for her this morning, but she declined.

My 8th grader. 8th?!?! Geez.

Looks like green shirts were the choice of the day.

What a sweet girl.

Looks thrilled, doesn't he?

I found out this morning that it's no longer cool to have your mom walk you into the building when you're a 5th grader. I guess that's about the time Thomas and Sydney "out-grew" it, too.

Now what to do with my day. Go back to bed? Fold all this laundry? Stay on here and play? I gotta mow the yard at some point today, weather permitting. Looks like it might rain, though.

I got another wedding photo job. Short notice, too. This one is the 29th of this month. I'm so excited. It's for one of the gals that I scrapbook with. It's an outdoor wedding this time.

Gloomy and dreary out there this morning. I'm off to curl up with a book and a blankie. All this quiet is making me sleepy.
