Today was the kids first day of school.  Ezie is in 7th grade,

Mallory started middle school and is in 6th grade

 and my baby, Jace started Kindergarten.

The annual shoes first day of school new shoes pic.

I am very proud of my kids because they settle for very inexpensive shoes this year

and Jace was content with a pair of new to me shoes.
(Thanks Levi & Leo!)

 Since Earl had lost his job the money just wasn't there for name brand shoes

and the kids did great about not complaining.

Thanks guys!!

and finally Daddy and Jace walking into school.

Jace only had a 30 minute orientation today

and he can't wait until tomorrow

when he has a full day and gets to eat lunch at school and ride the bus.



The kids all had a great day!

Tomorrow will be my first day without having anyone at home :(

Jace told me not to worry that our dog Charlie

would be home to take care of me and snuggle with me at nap time

oh, and he also told me that I could play his computer games.



It's the First Day of School

Ezie and Mallory started school today.

Ezie is in 6th grade and starting Middle School......

lockers, changing classes, lot's of new kids, new school......

Mallory is going into 5th grade

and this is the first year she is in a school without Ezie.

She is very excited to be back in school though!

Jace is home for another year much to his dismay.

He does although go to his pretend "Little Kid's School"

and Miss Murray from the tv show Little Bill is his teacher.

Earl's hours change back to 10-7.

It was nice getting up with him and making him breakfast this morning,

but I hate him getting home after 7:00

and then having to still go to his other job.

Oh well, that's life.

I hope they all have a really great day!

Jace and I will be anxiously waiting for them to get home

and tell us all about their new year.

The First Day of School

Today is Ezie and Mal's first day of school. They were so excited last night that neither one got to sleep until after 11:00. They are probably going to be running on adrenalin today. I remember those first days of school and the excitement of having new school supplies and clothes......and a million butterflies in my stomache. Jace isn't to happy about being left behind. I'm not babysitting this year so it's just me and Jace.

The Shoes. We had to get a picture of the shoes. Nikes and plaid.....what more could a kid ask for?!?! Mallory LOVES plaid and was so excited when we found this pair of shoes at Wal-mart. Of course we have the barefoot look on Jace.....who is like is mom and doesn't like to wear shoes.

I hope this is going to be a good school year!

These Boots Were Made For Walking (some vintage shoes my kids wore)

Most of my boys wore cowboy boots, but for some reason this is the only pair I can find right now. My oldest son Jeremy wore these about 29 years ago. I can't find a picture of Jeremy in his boots because in his birthday pictures he always had sneakers on because he has a late May birthday and he was in shorts by then. My mom bought these little winter type moccasins for Chad (my second son). He wore these when he was oneish so they are about 27 years old. He wore these all the time, they were so cute!
Chad with his little moccasins onI bought these two pairs of shoes at an estate sale and my daughter Lexie wore them a couple of times. They were to cute not to put them on her little feet. I love these shoes!! Lexie with the little purple shoes on. She looked so cute!!

Okay, these aren't vintage boots, but I loved these little pink cowgirl boots on Mallory. I bought them for before school started when she was 6.
