Back to School!!!

Today was the big day...1st day of school!





Kevin was so excited, could not wait. Kayla was very nervous and apprehensive. But they both did well at drop off and Kayla loves her new teacher. YEAH! We were on the fence about her but she seems to really like her already. So double yeah!! Here they are...going off to school!



Kayla actually gets her OWN desk this year and that is very exciting!



Kevin has already scouted out the BEST books in his classroom library and hidden them in his desk so nobody else can sneak them away to read them. Hee hee!! I hope the 2nd day is also a big success.

Saturday we went to a back to school pool party and the kids and I made these little cuties...teddy bear pool party cupcakes!



The kids put together the ring and the teddies and then topped them onto the frosting.



Don't worry, that one teddy to the left survived being strangled by his floatie tube, hee hee!! Hope you all had a great weekend and Happy Monday!!
