First Day of School

Back to the old routine!!! Hurray!!! I don't like having the kids gone all day! but it's nice to have a regular bedtime and wakeup time! I got up at 5:30, got the kids up and 6. Loaded them ALL in the Suburban and around 7 and drove to Brigham. We dropped Brooke off first at the Middle School. I rolled down the window as she was leaving and we all yelled "goodbye Brooke! We love you!!!" she was so embarrassed--it was great! Then we drove to the High School and dropped Matt off. We did the same to him, but he yelled "Bye! I love you too!" (it takes a lot to embarrass him!) Then we drove to the intermediate school and dropped Jack off--I hate leaving them on the first day in the big school! We drove back to Bear River and dropped Porter off at the elementary. When we got home Heber asked if I could take him to school now--we'd just be a few min early. His first day of kindergarten--we still had to wait 3 more hours! Dave came and took him for his first day, Eli put his school clothes on and his backpack and was all ready to go with him--I felt so bad that he couldn't go, he was kinda sad! Also, Jess started college today. So I have kids in 5 different schools--wow!
