Back to School

As they say all good things must come to an end and just like that summer was OVER . . . I am down to writing about our last trip of the summer on the other blog . . . just 5 more post and summer 2013 will be officially over!  So now I have a 4th grader in the house . . .
. . . for some reason first day photos did not turn out so grand so did a retake on day 2 . . .
 
It will have to do.  It was a short school week and on Friday we hit the road for Aggieland! 
It was HOT . . . I mean H-O-T hot . . . who schedules a noon game in August in Texas?  The game had a rough start but the end results are what mattered the most.  Of course our seats were not to bad either; I've never had 50 yard line seats before so thanks to the Aggie that could not use them and sold them to me!  I think Colin's favorite part was watching the Corps of Cadets march in before the game.  I could not pry him off the curb; he loved watching all the 'student soldiers' as he calls them.  I am slowly getting back into a routine but sure do miss my afternoon naps!  Our My life is sucked up for the next 8 weekends going to soccer games . . . today the game is at 1:30pm (seriously who schedules this stuff during the heat of the day?)  Oh and the best part was Colin woke at 6:30am . . . I feel a nap soon, very soon!  So here's to a great year in 4th grade . . . he does seem to love his teacher who is new to the school so I am optimistic too!
