Back to school.....

What do you mean I have to put both straps on Mum, that is so NOT cool.....


And my 2 darling boys are off to school....oh my....


We have had a pretty amazing summer filled with lots of days at the river, camping, hiking, playing and enjoying the sunshine that finally showed up in August!  I will share more on our adventures soon but I wanted to share some pics of my school aged boys.  My heart was breaking sending them off but I know new adventures are in stall for us all.  Sam was so ready to start school.  He displayed some very old man qualities indeed.  On his first day, he sat patiently at a desk whilst all the other kids were playing and exploring the classroom.  I tried to coax him over to the toys but he assured me that is what he was supposed to do and the teacher would talk to him soon!!!  Then he hugged me and said good-bye and turned back to the front.  Oh boy, I was so proud and yet so gutted that my little man didn't need me.  Sniff.

Oh my goodness, how grown up does Sam look - wasn't it only the other day that we were "baby"sitting you waiting for the birth!!

Hope you are all well and will be in touch soon.

I agree with Janine! Sam always was a big kid but he looks like he's about 7! Soooo glad you're back on the blog track. Can't wait to see loads more pics.
