One trip to Target and $100+ later, we are at last prepared for school to start. Well, with one exception. Haven't gotten Noah's "First Day of School" outfit yet, but really, with boys, what can you get them besides a tee and some shorts. Still too hot to send them in layers of cuteness when they go to a non-a/c school. So, we'll see if that's even necessary. Got him a new tee for $1.25, so guess he could always wear that! It's new, right? ;-) Both of the kids got new backpacks this year after using the same one for 3 and 4 yrs respectfully. Packed them with everything from crayons to ziploc bags, so they are ready to go! And, mommy's ready to send them!!
Livie wants sooo much to participate in back-to-school shopping, but unfortunately there is nothing on the list for her. Got her a new outfit, which is adorable by the way, but they don't need her to bring in pencils or crayons or anything. But, just to make sure she wasn't left out, Pete got her a pencil box and 2 erasers to which she added her tiger scissors, frog card, stuffed frog, and a fake $100 bill. All the necessary items for any preschooler. So, now it's just a waiting game until the 19th when the oldest two get sent off to school again, then a couple weeks after that before Livie starts up again. Yay for school!!

I used to love the beginning of school because I got two new dresses, a new pair of shoes, and dad always got me a new three-ring binder, and a new pen and pencil. How exciting. I know my own children loved the beginning of school each year, and when they were homeschooled, they waited anxiously for the supplies to arrive. We always spent a day at the school supply store (the one the teachers use) and spent a lot of bucks on supplies for them. I loved it, they loved it.
