a day of firsts!

The boys had their first day of the new school year on Tuesday this week, after a long, lazy and fun-filled summer break! They were so ready to get back to school - and so excited to start a new grade! (Kinder and 3rd to be exact.) Their enthusiasm for school had them up bright and early - and dressed and ready for a nice first-day-of-school picture!


Once at school, we managed to take a second for a picture with the principal!!!


The day was apparently fine (although I don't ever get a whole lot of detail out of either of them!) but my favorite part was the afternoon of the first day of school...
the boys' enthusiasm rolled nicely into some quiet reading time for them both.
(and I didn't even have to ask twice!)

Then Sam had his first ever piano lesson!
He enjoyed it and got right to practicing when he got home...

And finally, later that evening Hamp had his first soccer game of the season!
He was so excited to be able to play goalie - and had a great game overall. 

So between school drop-off, school pick-up, piano lessons and soccer practice - it's going to be a busy fall! But we're all glad to be back in the routine and looking forward to lots of fun and hopefully a little success in all we do...
