Back to School

No jumping on beds, eating ice cream out of carton, playing wii or anything fun this year while the kids went back for their first day of school. We just found out on back to school night that Abby doesn't start kindergarten until Monday. She goes 1/2 day in the mornings. We are so use to the all day kindergarten but this might be nice since it's my baby to only go 1/2 day, although, she is so ready to go to school. Abby is so lonely at home with out all the kids here.

Alexandrea started seminary this year and they are studying the BOM this year. She was not nervous at all to start school. She said she feels like she has been in school forever. She loves her classes and all her teachers.
Ashley is in 7th grade and she is really going to try to stay organized this year so she can keep her cell phone. Ashley will have the opportunity to make new friends this year because the friends she made last year are not in her classes.
Jonathan was nervous to start school. He had stomach aches the night before. I don't know why he worries, he walkes on school grounds and everyone comes over and wants to hang out with Jonathan. Even though Jonathan is shy and doesn't talk much it doesn't seem to matter he gets surrounded by kids wanting to be his friend. Teachers rave on what a star student he is.

Aubrey is so excited she loves her teacher. She has the teacher Jonathan had last year and this teacher doesn't do homework. She was so excited about that. Aubrey was ready to get back to school today.

Beautiful pics. They are all so grown up. I didn't take pics and I need to. I am slacking. It was fun to chat for a bit. Sorry my phone died. Have a great weekend.
