Summer? What Summer?

We had back to school nights this past week

Tuesday night for Spencer and Thursday night for Parker

I didn't take pictures because "we're to cool for that"

I decided that it would be best to have the boys one on one

I posted before about my love for having theses boys one on one

I love having them together but there's something about having them one on one

Having them one on one lets us focus on THAT ONE

When they are separated, their personalities come out more

We talk about stuff we might not talk about when the other one is there (they like different things)

They are different and it makes me more aware of how different and grown up they're becoming

It's sad but at the same time, it's absolutely amazing

On Tuesday night we went to Spencer's school

He ran up and down the steps and left us in the dust

He found his locker, his classrooms and introduced himself to all his teachers

At one point, I had tears in my eyes

This boy is something else!

Spencer can talk to anyone, this boy will have NO problem finding a job

He's outgoing and can have a conversation with ANYONE

I love that about him!

I'm not sure where it came from because his dad and I are both a little quiet

especially when it comes to people we don't know

I watched other students steer clear of teachers or their parents introduced them

I'm glad Spencer can talk to them and can make a great first impression

After back to school night, Spencer wanted Cheri Top so that's what we had

Parker's back to school night was Thursday
As we walked into the school, he said Summer sure went fast
YES, YES it did!

We were certain he would have Mrs. Truitt because he has had all the teacher's Spencer had

Boy were we surprised to find out he has Mrs. Hartman

He was beaming ear to ear

He loves Mrs. Truitt but Mrs. Hartman is pretty darn cool

Her classroom is filled with animals

Snakes, lizards, fish, frogs, ferrets, hissing cockroaches.....

I can't handle the smell but the kids absolutely LOVE it

Parker put all of his supplies where they were supposed to go and he was out of there

That day he found a Subway coupon for a free sandwich with the purchase of a sandwich

Needless to say he was a super cheap date and was pretty proud of it

After we got our sandwiches, we drove to Weed Park to eat and check out the new lion sculpture

They will be off to school tomorrow morning
Ready or not
