We have had a busy and fun summer, but I am glad that school is now in session again. Both kids have really been looking forward to starting school, seeing their friends and playing.
Bricen started his 2nd year of preschool. He is going to Albany Christian again and will be there 3 times a week this year. Of course I want to capture each moment and Brice and I had just got back from walking Brianna to the bus stop here. In true Bricen fashion these days he had a few whiny words and unpleasant things to say before finally smiling for the picture. 
I finally convinced him that it would only take a minute and then we would head to school. 
As soon as we got to his classroom he saw his buddy Isiah, the train table we donated and dinosaurs. What could be better! He ran in and was very excited to start the day. No tears, no please stay mom, just ready for his school day. 
He reports having a great time and can't wait to go back.
Brianna had been a little nervous for school this year. Lunch was the big worry... I think it was more about the unknown than anything else. She decided that bringing a lunch would be the best option and we picked out a cute lunch bag to match her backpack. When we did the meet and greet with her new teacher, she went through everything and felt a little more comfortable. The night before school, we packed lunch and picked out the first day of school clothes. She was giddy with excitement (it was very cute to see her so excited)
She is so grown up, I just can't believe she is going to school for a whole day now and riding the bus! What a big girl.
Brian and I both went on the first morning and she was very excited. She got watery eyes when we gave hugs goodbye. She rode the bus home and was very eager to tell us all about the day. 
Here they are waiting for the bus the next morning. I think so far this is one of her favorite parts of the day. I am so impressed that she has adjusted to the new year so well. All of her best friends are in the other class, but already she has made new friends and loves her teacher. I am hopeful that this will be a great year!

I have really enjoyed catching up with your family through all yoru recent posts, Sarah! I can't believe how big your kids are! They are so cute! I LOVE the first picture of Brice, so funny!
Could Bricen look any more like his father in the very first picture? We were all laughing at how typical that is of a little boy....
Brianna gets to ride the bus to school???? Sawyer is going to be so jealous when she finds out...
And I love the running to the bus picture!
Bricen is at that "do it my way" age. I can remember another young man going through that stage about 28 years ago :~D
I've heard Grams refer to Brianna as a "big young lady headed for the bus" and a "little girl on a huge bus". Mixed emotions.
Oh my goodness, Sarah, your daughter looks exactly like you! What adorable kids, can't believe all of our babies are growing so fast.
