This was the long awaited DAY! The kids were excited and so am I ~ They are finally starting school! We were blessed that our beloved neighbor Katie dropped off 2 surprise cookie packages for the kids to give to their teachers!

The morning of 1st day of school:
 |
| CAleb rides into the horizon...ur...sprinklers, as he casually leaves for 1st day of 5th grade! |
Caleb couldn't wait for me to drive him and sister, so he decided to take off at 7:25am to be one of the first kids to arrive at school!
Abbie and I had a hard time finding parking space, but glad we made it in time!
 |
| It's so hot and crowded mommy! |
There was a HUGE crowd, and it was already 79 degrees at 7:50am!
 |
| Abbie's classmates all had new backpacks! So cute! |
The kids love going back to school, and all the excitement of new teachers, friends, backpacks and schedules were shown on their faces! Some mommy friends were a bit anxious, but I know that slowly they & their kids will enjoy a smooth a smooth routine after the hustle and bustle of week 1 of school!
 |
| Professional homemade Green bean pons! |
 |
| SO yummy, mommy! More please! |
This year this Chinese holiday falls on 9/11, which is another memorable day in U.S. history. As we gather 'round the table with loved ones for dinner and mooncakes, we also thank those who sacrificied themselves to give us freedom (And Jesus ~ who sacrificed himself to give us eternal life! Yeah!)
Happy Back to school week and Mid-Autumn Festival!
