First Week of School

The kids enjoyed going back to school, minus waking up super early. I was super drained. After sitting down the entire summer, my feet hurt every single morning when my alarm went off at 6:45. However, I was woken up before that due to (annoying) morning texts from co-workers since they know I'm one of the last ones to get out of bed.

Anyway... some pictures on the first day of school. This tradition is going to continue till high school. They might not be smiling then when I take them later on in life.

On Saturday, we took the VTA to the Convention Center for some Heroes and Villians thing. I nicknamed it Freaks and Geeks. I would rather spend a Saturday browsing the aisles at Target. 

 Happy kids riding public transportation

How many Tsums does Mommy have at home?

Sake nigiri!

And that was our weekend and the first week of school. I survived! That's all that matters!

August Shinnanigans

My one and only faithful reader asked why there hasn't been an update in so long. Simple - I've been busy and tired this month. I spent the first week of August at a conference in LA to learn about our new curriculum. I tried to live it out with the kids the following week, but often took them to school so I can prep for the school year. And this past week was our Staff Development week. August was all about prepping for school. Tomorrow is our first day of school - I can't believe I have a kindergartner and a preschooler. 

Although August was busy, and I didn't take a ton of pictures, we still did some fun things like going to Great America, Happy Hollow, and CDM.

 ... and that was summer. This might be the fastest summer ever! I'm going to have a hard time waking up at 6:30 tomorrow. The kids are going to have an even harder time waking up that early. I miss summer already!
