This is what Viviana thought:
not really...it's just the funny 'fro leftovers after her cute hairdo yesterday.
And this is how THIS momma felt about it all today:
(pretend you don't see g's--I just did a happy dance jump move and I was still flying-pretty good self-timer pic, huh!).
Today after doing the drop-off's and saying the goodbyes, Lexie, Vivie, and I headed to Market Street Cafe for our traditional breakfast back-to-school celebration with some friends. Lexie decided she wanted to go to the beach during our together-time, so we hung out at Tamarack just watching the surfers, listening to the crashing waves, writing our names in the sand, and watching the pelicans scavenge for food while Izzie found her independence for a couple of hours at preschool. Two is a lot different than six! I'm grateful for my alone time with these little lovers of mine! (Vivie was sleeping in a nice cool car with a breeze going through it 5 feet away from us).

Best day of the year!
Love it....& VIvs' fro is hilarious:)
Yay for the first day of school!
Hope everyone had a good day--I personally don't like getting back into routine - the stress of getting everyone out the door on time, the lunches, the homework, etc. I wish school was only 3 or 4 days a week and then I think it would be perfect. Kind of like the work week. :)
Love Vivie's new do - she looks like one of the Indians on Dances with Wolves - just needs a few feathers in here hair.
I use to have mixed emotions about my kids first day of school. I wanted to play longer, but it did give me some quiet time to get all my "stuff" done in the morning.
I really didn't like the homework idea - hey that butted into MY time.
Quiet time? Not so much...just 1/2 the chaos right now and the sound level has gone WAY down. Maybe in 4 years I'll have quiet time...and that's when I'll be sad. I'm really not looking forward to having them all in school-I love my time with my little ones (and big ones) just not all at once all the time!!!
I feel the same way - my happy dance starts on Monday when my "babies" start Preschool!!
I love Viv's 'do. I bet your girls are loving preschool--Jonas and Makai were supposed to be going to preschool at the same time/same days but I decided Makai didn't really need it yet. Enjoy the school year!
I love the Gs Shot!!! You look so happy, glad we could celebrate this day together!
Going back to school was bitter sweet for me this year. My kids are just growing up too fast. As always, the photos of your kids are great, but I think the picture of you is my favorite!
I think I would be doing a happy dance too! I can't believe brayden is in middle school?!? I got a hold of a disk that contains You know what. Don't you love me:) I'll send it soon. Also I get sooo many compliments on the cute flowers you made for Addy, thanks again!
You could be on a toyota commercial! (oh, what a feeling!)
Hooray! You deserved to do the victory dance.
All the pictures are adorable. I confess that when I shut the garage door in the morning after I shoo my kids out for the bus,and entice Tommy back into the house with a phrase involoving the words "SpongeBob SquarePants", I do it with a big grin on my face. Because I know that I am officially off the clock for a little bit as I eat breakfast in my pj's infront of the computer in a leisurely manner. Can't do that during summer so much. Yay for school!
Love the happy dance! Love the photo of the happy dance! You crack me up. I am also glad that Kate and Kenz are in the same class. You are going to be a great Room Mom. Hee Hee.
Your happy dance was pretty funny! It looks like you and Lexie had some great one on one time, and I love that pic of Vivie.
gotta love those first day of school pictures!
I think I did that exact same happy dance. I love that you caught yours on camera!! Hooray for school!
