Oh Happy Day -- Back to School Time!!
Boys ready to start a new year, both now in Middle School: Clifford in 7th and Kristjan in 6th.
Boys saying goodbye to Peter, who is trying to convince them to let us walk them to the bus stop.
Peter and I took the day off of work to celebrate and have a day date. We enjoyed a mimosa and split breakfast before heading out for some window shopping.
Guess who came up for a visit to surprise the boys on their first day of school?! Aunt Franie!!! She even bought balloons for them!!
This was awesome. Peter and I have known for weeks that she would be coming up, and kept it a secret from the boys. One day Clifford was giving me a hard time and I posted about it on Facebook. Franie commented "Do I need to come up and give Clifford loves?" Clifford made the mistake of saying she lives too far away for her to come visit. HA! That just fueled Franie's fire to come visit for sure LOL! So she came prepared with balloons and noise clappers. I told the boys we'd pick them up from school, lying about a doctor's appointment they had so they wouldn't take the bus home. Franie made her grand appearance at the school, running and yelling Clifford's name. He went hiding in the bushes!!! Haha!
As for Kristjan, he thought it was awesome to get balloons and candy on the first day!
