First Day of 'Real' School!

Who would have thought that kids who were so eager to go to school would be so grumpy getting up! Both Emma and Ashley just moaned and groaned as I tried to get them up and out of bed. Mikey wasn' to bad, but he is a morning person. I must say that it was kinda neat to step back and look at all five of us getting ready. We don't normally all get ready at the same time! There was much hustle and bustle, a few things missplaced, but that was quickly ironed out. Everyone was dressed, feed, hair & teeth brushed and ready to go 1/2 early! We took lots of pictures and the kids were just waiting and kept asking "Is it time to go yet?"


Off we went on our 10 minute trek to school. By this time, the kids would not stop chatting about school this and school that We walked the kids to their classrooms and dropped them off. I didn't want to leave the girls, Mikey I knew would be okay, but my babies! Mike walked me out of the school and I just slumped on his shoulder, "My babies aren't babies anymore! What am I supposed to do now?". Enthusiasticly (a little to much) he replied, "CLEAN!!!!!"

I was pleasantly suprised how quite the house could be and how much I was able to accomplish with them gone. I definitely missed them more than I thought I would. I went to pick the girls, only to find they were afraid I wasn't coming cause it had been a really long time. They didn't cry to much, but they did say they had a great time. They explored the school with two different tours, and enjoyed a mid morning snack. Mikey, who was nervous before school, said that school was awesome! He said that he had one class he didn't like, he couldn't remember which one it was, but he said it was to long! All in all they had fun, and they want to go back!
