School started Tuesday. Mason is in kindergarten, Alex - 1st grade and Paris -3rd.
Here's Paris and her new backpack:)
Mason lining up with the kindergartens on the first day. This day went very well- he had a great time and was proud and happy. Yesterday and today, not so much:( A lot of tears at drop off but he was happy again at pick-up. Hopefully he makes some new friends quickly and gets into the swing of things... otherwise, Mom is going to have a mental breakdown:)
Filing into the classroom to hang up backpacks.
Alex got class with one of his best buddies, Charlie (curly hair). Here they are looking very nervous on first day.
Alex was thrilled to be sitting next to another friend, Van, who he has known since preschool.
This is his teacher, Mrs. Gates... and here the boys are looking much more relaxed after the first day ended.

I snuck into the lunch room for this pic of Paris and her friends.
Lily, Paris and Portia after school.
I surprised the kids (and myself:)) with this pencil cake to celebrate "back to school." It was actually very fun and easy to make.

That cake is awesome, bravo! I'm impressed with the size of the kids' book bags too. I love the way Paris is wearing her hair in these pics. And what is up with Paul's awesome tan??
