We always start a new school year with a special pancake breakfast, and then we head outside to take some photos to mark the occasion. This year, we used the signs I designed {that you can download here}.
Then, we took our traditional photos of the boys holding their first day of school photos from the previous year. I love seeing how much the boys change from year to year.
We finished the day with some milk, cookies, and a big chat about the days events. We all had a great first day, and we are looking forward to the year ahead.
How was the first day of school at your house?
