The blessed, blessed day finally arrived!

You could physically feel the excitement in the air when the first day of school rolled around. Aaron realized that getting ready for Kindergarten is a little bit earlier in the morning than preschool. He was still thrilled and here is how the day unfolded. We always walk with our neighbor across the street. Through the years we have added quite the procession!

At school, I was fortunate enough to have the kids contain their excitement for a brief moment to take a picture. Don't they look great?! My babies are growing up!



We followed everyone to their classrooms where I was able to take some candid shots.

Aaron was able to do some fun things in his classroom. I have a picture of Ammon and Tyler doing the same thing in the same classroom when they were in Kindergarten.



Aaron is a very fun loving, mischief making ready for school little 5 year-old. He is an independent thinker but loves to do what brothers do. He is a bright kid that will do really well in school!

Of course, if wouldn't be true to the nature of the up and coming student to not make their presence known. Hyrum enjoyed all the new school supplies.



Isn't he a handsome guy? Tyler is a very social guy. He loves to make friends and always tries to find someone who needs one. He especially likes to make friends with the female side. His "ups" of the day usually consists of his interactions with his lady friends.
He always has been a charmer!
Our school does this really cool thing where you pay a certain amount and they will compile and have your kids school supplies ready for them on the first day of school! I didn't have to go to four different stores to find all of

the specific items on the list. In a way, this was like Christmas morning for Ammon!




The kids had a great day, and I got a lot done! Here's to a new year!

Here-here! Okay, no way Aaron is already in Kindergarten already!!! I am just stunned. I bet he and Joseph would be best buds! Tyler is still such a "ham"! Takes after his mom ;)? Ammon seems to be continuing his boy-geniusness, and truly all of the kids are beyond gorgeous. Emily and Hyrum next :)! Good luck Bub and Martin, love you guys!!!
