First Day Back to School! 8/6/12

First day of HIGH school, MIDDLE school (6th) and 2nd grade....Yes, today marks the first day back to school for us, yes I know it's so early here compared to TX and OK. Today's temp 113 ugg it was a hot one! Here are a few pictures of everyone this morning! Would you believe that we got up early for our first day of school?...like really early, for us! Zane had to be at the bus stop at 6:50am so we were up at 5:30am!

Each year I like to do First Day Back school photos.  Not everyone was thrilled as you can see...but oh well they will love me later for it :) hehe

Zane freshman year (high school 9th grade) is that possible?!

 Shelby Layne middle school (6th grade) she was not thrilled that I made her hold this sign hehe! Okay I guess she is too old! 

Presley Esley 2nd grade!! She loved her sign :) 

 

Shelby was off to go meet her girlfriends so they could all ride their bikes to school together! Love that she loves to ride her bike everyday!

Presley at her desk!! She was so excited this morning! She loves school!

Everyone had a great first day back to school!!!

Its been a while since I have taken time to write on the blog. Things get busy and hectic around here...

I have started cleaning houses (which I love...always need me some walkin around money ha), Zane has been going to weightlifting/football camp Mon-Thurs which is GREAT! That will continue until the middle of July! Shelby is going to start soccer camp with a few of her girlfriends, and little Miss Presley loves having play dates. 

So here it goes, I'm going to try and catch up on here in a few posts... 

Happy Birthday Shelby! Hard to believe she is already 11...It seems like yesterday she was just born and she brought so much joy into our life. She is such a incredible young lady. She is kind and generous and so giving of herself to others. She is funny and thoughtful. We tell her everyday how much we love her, and adore every moment we spend with her. She make us proud and we love her to the moon and back!!

So for Shelby's 11th Birthday party we decided to have a small group of friends over and have a Pool/Beach theme Party! Jessica, my older sister was able to come down for the party which made it extra special, since it will be the last time she could travel before she has her babies :)

 Birthday girl!
