Back to School

 We had a fun Back to School Dinner to Celebrate Spencer going into Kindergarten...

 These were our apple sugar cookies that the boys helped me make.  We passed some out to our friends to wish them good luck as well.

 Landon and his apple - love the face!

Dinner... just like sack lunch!

The boys around the dinner table.  You can't see the streamers, but Spencer and Landon helped me hang streamers all around the kitchen and living room.  They wanted it super decorated for when Nick came home from work.

 After dinner we had an art project...

 We painted canvases... and ...

 Put our hand prints on them for the new school year!

 Spencer 1st Day of Kindergarten 2012

 Showing off his new watch!  He was super excited to wear his Lightning McQueen watch and tell the time throughout the day!

Spencer showing Landon around his new school.  Yep - I still get choked up looking at this picture.  They are such cute little buddies!

Enjoying the playground...

 Playing on the slide before the bell rings...

 "Show me your backpack!"

Peaking in the classroom window - Spencer was really excited for Landon to see his room!

 Hugs - "Tears" don't get me started!

 Hug for Cooper!

 My BIG little guy!  

 Finding his seat and picture he colored at the Meet and Greet!

 Landon taking a quick sit down in Spencer chair before we smiled big and waved "See ya real soon!"

 Success!!  A WONDERFUL first day of Kindergarten!  He loved every minute of it and was thrilled to tell everyone about all of his adventures.

 We all met up with Nick for lunch at Chili's so we could celebrate and talk about the first day of school.  I was so proud of MYSELF!!  I held it all together, kept smiling and cheered him on the whole way.  Oh and he did great too :o) But he was excited from the get-go.  He told me a month ago I couldn't cry because going to Kindergarten was going to be really fun - And it was!!
