Today Rachel and Mayah and I looked online for some cute hair do's. Rachel was looking for something I could do for her first day of school tomorrow. We really didn't find one she wanted. But Mayah wanted this one...even though she doesn't go to school tomorrow. So we practiced today. It is a side swipe with rubberbands and a side pony.
AND yes it is supposed to be going to the side. :)
For dinner tonight we did a back to school special dinner. Here is everyone holding up their fingers of what grade they are going into. Notice Caleb....7th. Rachel....2nd. Ethan 0...so grade K. And not sure why Don is holding up one finger. :) Zach 4th. And poor little Mayah...home with me.

Here is our special menu. From left to right we have Learning Lemonade, Vocabulary Veggies (Broccoli), School Bus Sloppy Joes, Word Watermelon and Test Score Tator Tots.
I put skewers in the food with the name of the food on a little stinky note. The kids loved it.

And it was yummy.
And we can't forget our FHE dessert. For FHE Don gave each of the kids and I a blessing for the start of the new year. Here is our cute little back to school bus cake. Caleb decorated the little people in the window and most of the other parts. Pretty darn good I say. It was actually cupcakes shaped into a bus. It wasn't too easy frosting them because the frosting kept dripping into the holes between the cupakes but it was still fun and the kids really had a great time and they are all very excited to start school in the morning. I am a bit nervous for them. I hope it goes well and I hope they all come home happy.

Sounds like a fun celebration. I need to remember that idea of naming the food that way. Emma would really get a kick out of that. Good luck to all of your kids. Aren't blessings nice? Jason gave one to Emma and I and Claire was the only other brave one to ask for one. She was so cute, "me too daddy." Paul and Ben were not so sure about it though. Have fun with Mayah!
You guys are so cute. so cute!
Super cute and what a good idea! I love Mayah's hair too, she looks adorable! Wow they are so grown up looking!
