Back to School

 Rockwell started junior high on Tuesday!! It was 7th Grade Day, so it was three hours and they went to all eight of their classes. 

He had a hard time sleeping Monday night and was nervous all morning, but when he got home he said he loved it!! He said his teachers are all so nice, he has friends in almost all his classes, and he loved walking home with Dhiren. It was such a relief to have such a positive experience. 

Wednesday was the first day of school for the rest of the grades. Damon was so excited for school once he met his teacher at back to school night. She seems so sweet and has set up a classroom with such a good feeling in it. He couldn't wait to get there!
Tessa was a little less excited since all of her friends got a different teacher this year. But luckily she said her day was awesome when she got home too!

2nd grade & 4th grade

Wednesdays are early out days for the junior high. Rockwell and Dhiren decided to stay for lunch and then walk home. It was fun to have some time with Rockwell to hear about his first real day of classes and sit with him while he worked on homework. I think I can get used to this!
When Tessa and Damon got home, they talked about how great their days were for half an hour, and it looked like this the whole time. Haha. They had a lot of energy!

Wednesday was also Paul and my 17th Anniversary. We went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner to celebrate the anniversary and the first day of school. I'm sure glad Paul married me 17 years ago, and that we have created a beautiful family and life together. Best decision I've ever made!!
I loved finding this selfie after Rockwell took our pictures for us. :)

  1. That's such a cute selfie Rockwell took. That was such a great decision you made to marry Paul and you two have built a wonderful family and life together! I'm so glad that your children were all so excited about their school experiences. That picture was so funny with Damon and Tessa after school. They must have had boundless energy!

  2. Your kids are the cutest and so are you and Paul! I love the picture of Tessa and Damon upside while they tell you about school. That time with Rockwell after school looks amazing!
