First day of school 2010-2011

We started a new year of school today. It went well and I am happy with what we have for curriculum.......so far. I usually am happy with it until around Thanksgiving. We are going to be busy this year though. We have lots to learn and do. I will take you through our morning.

Here are pics of them still sleeping:


Then of course you have the traditional first day of school pancake breakfast. This year it came from McDonald's because I didn't sleep well last night and didn't get up early enough to get the pancakes ready for my little munchkins. I don't think that they really cared though. As long they got pancakes I think they were a happy group.



And the traditional first day of school pics in front of the house. Of course, I am a little biased, but I think they are little cutie pies.
