A New School Year - 5th and 9th Grade

School has begun this week for our 5th and 9th grader. 

 I usually try to take some back to school photos, but this year I had some resistance.  I finally talked them into it (for memories boys, it's our tradition, it will just take a few minutes). 

We are blessed to be a part of a homeschool co-op.  The boys have a full day of school on Monday...

First day of co-op

  then we work from home Tuesday through Friday.

These boys are delightful and so much fun.  I'm loving them getting older.  Their personalities are so much fun, they help out a lot around the house, and they are becoming great guys! They've had a full and wonderful summer, more on that soon, but were both ready for the school year to start.

The years have flown by:

First Day 2008 - Preschool and 3rd Grade

First Week of School 2009 - Kindergarten and 4th Grade

First Day 2010 - 1st and 5th Grade

New School Year 2011 - 2nd and 6th Grade

Back to School 2012 - 3rd and 7th Grade

Not a back to school post, but has pictures from their first day 2013 - 4th and 8th Grade
