First and Last

Yesterday my kids headed back to school. I am usually full of excitement when my kids go to school. I have never felt sad, even when it was a little one going off to Kindergarten. I think part of it is the freedom for me, but also that I LOVED school!! And for the most part my kids do to.

Well, this year was a little different. As I was taking the annual first day of school pictures, it hit me hard that this would be Zac's last first day of school!! He will be graduating this year and so next fall (well, summer) he will not be a part of the tradition! He is getting closer and closer to leaving us, and it KILLS me!! I will miss him like crazy and have decided to just stop thinking about it.

So here are the photos!!
Kamrie - 2nd GradeScott - 5th Grade
(here that means middle school! And I
fixed his hair before we left!)
Chad - 6th Grade
(took him to the Dr, in that last 5 months he grew
3 inches and put on 30 pounds)Tyler - 10th GradeZac - 12th Grade!!

They wear uniforms to school, I didn't make them
wear matching clothes for the photo!

Your kids are huge! When we left ummm a few years ago, there was no way they were this big. It seems crazy to think that Tyler was the same kid Ben taught in Primary when we were first married. Nuts. They look great!

That's a good looking bunch of kids! My Zachary recently made me change the spelling of his nick name to Zac too (instead of Zack). Way cooler that way anyway!

Your older two look like men- such cute kids. I hope both you and Zac enjoy his senior year!

I can't believe how old your kids are. And you look great, exactly the same as when I last you at about age 22 or so. Looks like your family life is going along perfectly and I'm very happy for you. But you are definitely about to enter a new stage of life, how exciting.

It seems way to early for school to be starting....crazy!
I love the uniforms...it looks so nice. and I would have bought that dress your daughter is wearing anyway...Such a nice looking family!

Oh my gosh! Your kids are so grown up! Kamrie looks really tall! Can't believe you have a senior this year! Wow.
