S&T - Back to School/New School - Middle School!


Please stop over to participate!

Michael started 6th Grade this year--which is Middle School(!) (For me, I went to grade school from K-6, then Jr. High School 7-8, so this is something a bit new to me).

Every school year I have a set of poses that I always get photos of, and there are some I have added throughout the years...


All packed the night before.


This morning, all ready dressed and ready to go! Normally, I would have gotten a photo of him in his bed, as I woke him up--but my Middle Schooler has his own alarm clock now--and he was already up and dressed!




Breakfast time! It seems First Day of school is always scrambled eggs and some type of melon (usually cantalope).



Kif wants some too!! And lately, the cats always have to invade the pictures...


Ready to go...


Middle School awaits!


Blowing a kiss, as he goes to school. (This photo was taken from the car window...he did not need us to get out and walk him there, we just dropped him off--and watched him go...and then I cried).

Happy First Day of Middle School, Michael!

Oh, and to compare, here is Kindergarten and Third Grade...it goes by fast!

Isn't it mind blowing? My oldest goes to high school next year and I am really trying to pretend it isn't true.

I hope Michael has a great day.

Such great pictures. His day is definitely off to a great start.

Hope he had a wonderful first day of middle school! And that you survive too.

Oh my goodness, those are some sweet pictures.

Are you sure he's supposed to be in middle school?? Maybe he's still 3 and just posin' as a middle schooler?

Hope it went well. We are just getting our wits about us again a week and a half in ....

We do middle school next year. New to me ... I went to parochial school in Philly K-8. So is this where ... what? ... kids get meaner? School gets ... harder? Cooler? What IS the point of moving them? Besides having to wake up painfully earlier?

Much Needed Self Care...

For my Birthday this year, I got a weekend away from everyone at a nice hotel with a spa.  This was the weekend.  And much needed it was! Af...
