What a day!

The girls walked home from school their first day of school.  The kids and I were picking weeds outside as we waited for them.  Aubrie ran the last bit to get home to us.  She was very excited and told me all about her day.

Keeley, on the other hand, had a hard day.  She was exhausted from lack of sleep and the adrenaline surges all day.  She crashed onto the lawn and dragged herself over to us.  She told us how bad the day was and that she felt yucky all day.  Poor girl.  DSC03323

Every day on the first day of school we make a bus cake.  A tradition passed on to us from Matt's sister Suzie.  Thanks Suzie!  The kids are always so excited to see what the bus looks like every year.  This year Aubrie requested a flat front bus, "Because, you know mom, busses these days are flat on the front."  Keeley was so exhausted that she wouldn't even smile for the 'bus cake pictures'.  DSC03316 DSC03317 DSC03318 DSC03324 DSC03325
