First Day of School

Ok folks, it's that magical time of year that parents anticipate and children dread. The start of a new school year. Let's give you a run down of the happenings of a new year of school at the Walker household. But first here is an absolutely hilarious picture of Lexi in her new school clothes. Yes I need professional help. Can you just see the excitement in her eyes?

First we have Zac. He is starting Kindergarten at Spanish Oaks Elementary School and his teacher is Mrs.Olson. He is a little nervous about having to go to school 'every day' because he has always been quite fond of his days at home with mommy. He is most excited to get to ride his scooter home with his big brother and friends. That will have to wait a few weeks though until Jake is no longer in his soft cast.

Next we have Luke. He is in the 8th grade at Diamond Fork Junior High School. He has too many classes to list but is quite excited because his first 3 periods are Body Conditioning, Health, and Weight Training. He says he doesn't even have to get out of his sweats until almost lunch time! He is most excited for the girl scene at the J.H. He has never had a lack of attention from the female species. He will probably be trying out for the Golf team at school. We'll keep you posted.
Next is Jake. He is a 3rd grader at Spanish Oaks Elementary School and his teacher is Mr. Rigby. He is really excited to have a male teacher this year because they come out and play football at recess. Jake pretends to hate school because he thinks thats P.C. but those who know him well know how much he really enjoys it. His teachers always gush about his infectious sense of humor and personality.

Don't they look fabulous! All spiffed up and ready to learn. Shoes are compliments of Grandma Lynn. They get to spend an afternoon shopping with her and then they all go to lunch together. You know how grandma's love to shop! Backpacks and school supplies are compliments of Grandma Patsy. She gets to relive her childhood by shopping for these items with the boys. I have never seen a woman so excited over a box of crayons before. The boys really treasure these special dates with their Grandma's. (Not to mention the huge help it is to the pocketbook of mom and dad. Thanks Grandma's!)

Your boys look so handsom. It makes me sick, I took one look at zac's picture and he looks way to old. They grow way to fast. I cant forget the dog poor thing or should I say poor you (just kidding). I think it's cute.

Very cute and VERY handsome boys. I bet you are glad to have them all in school - what a fantastic day. And yes you need help with the dog thing.
