Bus Stop

 Waiting for the bus to come. . .

 All here and ready to go . . .

 Superman with his dino backpack.

 
A bit early for little Lillie.
 
Bye bye guys! 

We really like our bus driver.  He is so nice.  It's great that there is also a bus monitor that rides along to make sure everything is fine with the kids as they ride to and from school.  The kids actually get home about as fast as if I were to pick them up from school, and they are never late as long as they get out to the bus on time.  Win win if you ask me.  We like to practice our primary songs and Articles of Faith as we wait for the bus. 

School Bells Ring!


 School has started.  Everyone was excited to go.

 
Gotta love those uniforms.  They all look so cute!  Plus, we don't really have to decide what to wear each day.
 Keith had his secret identity with him.  I made him leave it in the van. . .



Alyssa was so excited to go to class.  No hesitation at all.  We are so glad to get the same teacher that Kirsten had.
Looks like Kirsten has lots of fun things to learn this year.  She was the only kid to come home with homework on the first day.  Usually others have it too. 
 Ethan and Rebecca probably could have walked themselves to class, (Rebecca wanted to), but I insisted on taking them.  I feel bad for the little kids who show up on the bus and don't know where to go.  Fortunately there are plenty of adults to help them get to their classrooms, but still. . .  We went to orientation and helped the kids find their classrooms before the first day, which was a big help for me and them.

Keith got in on the fun with a new backpack of his own, complete with a little lunch box (very convenient for the days when we are out and about).
