Back to School 2015

School is back in session. Summer has come and go before we could even blink. The kids were really excited for school to start. I have kids at three different schools this year. Jacob is in 10th grade at Lone Peak High School. Megan is in 8th grade at Mountain Ridge Junior High, and Katelyn (6th), Claire (4th), Drew (2nd), and Ellie (kindergarten) are all attending Highland Elementary.

Following another tradition, we celebrated with our annual “Back-to-School” fashion show. The theme this year is “Begin to be up and Doing” (from Alma 60:24). We love the excitement that these traditions bring for the kids. Can you tell I am a big fan of traditions?! Each kid tried on three outfits and we all voted on our ballots and the winning outfit is what they wear on the first day back.

Here are the kids heading out to school on their first day. We have three different departure times (actually four with kindergarten). It is a bunch of craziness but we wouldn’t change it for the world.
