First Day of School 2008
School starts early here in the heat.
The 11yo is starting 6th grade and he was SO nervous. All the teachers and different classrooms is all very intimidating. Despite the nerves, after the first day was all over he said that it was SO boring- the teachers just went over rules. They apparently have a lot of rules. None of his friends are in his classes- except one boy in band. More about band later.
The 9yo is in 4th grade and he claimed to not be nervous. He got the teacher that Connor had, so that's OK. The real tragedy is that none of his friends are in his class :(
The 6yo is in first 1st grade! He's so excited to stay at school all day and eat school lunch. It's fun when they like things that they'll hate later.
The first day went great and everyone came home happy.

It is always an adventure to start a new year. The kids that you don't know now could become good friends in the weeks to come. A message to the boys : It takes time and effort to make friends. You have to say hi and ask them questions to get a conversation started. It's worth it in the end.
J and A- Your boys are so cute and we had such a good time visiting with them this summer.
I love the picture. It is so Arizona-ish. Yea for Jake! Oh how I wish we could have all day school for Tanner. I am glad they all made it through the first day- now the rest of the year!
I am going to have a blog with this same title very soon!

You guys look great. The first day of school must not have been too hard on you. I remember well my first day in middle school (jr high). How was I ever going to find the different rooms, and get used to 7 different teachers, and dont forget all the different people in 7 different classrooms. But it didnt matter. After the first week it was like I had been doing it that way my whole life. So each of you just enjoy all these new experiences and friends. They may become some of your best friends.
