It's the first day of school...and here are the kids in their new clothes and back packs. Gary left for school before anyone was awake, so he isn't in the picture.
Parker picked out this back pack, it has loads of pockets and zippers and yet it is a very simple and elegant black goes with every thing style.
Jenessa's style is less pockets and more flare. She loved this floral and saw it when we were shopping for Mike's Birthday. Later, when we went school shopping, she knew exactly which shop and what back pack she wanted. I did try to talked her into a purple and pink one but she wasn't the least bit interested.
Gavin was sure he needed a new "packpack" and found this little one with a cute cars motif at Walmart for five dollars. Mommy, as always the sucker, also bought the matching hat.
I will have to post pictures of Gary later, he was gone when I got up, but the cloud of cologne was not.

so cute your kids are....there's a little pigeon for ya. They looked great and ready to conquer their school. Preston has the same sweatshirt as Gavin. He looks so old in that picture. Your kids are too beautiful.

Gavin's hair cracks me up. It makes him look like a little teenager!

Danny and Matt are sitting here looking over my shoulder and Danny would like me to pass on this well known father fact: Kids don't have to have something from the store every time you go, even if it is only five dollars. And they would both like to know if the "Useless Knowledge" portion at the bottom of the blog is were Mike gets to post things or if that is just a happy coincidence!
