Sunburns and Back to School... Are we having fun yet?

First day of school


Well, the girls had a youth lake day activity on Saturday. They say that they put on sunblock, but both came home with sunburns. Hannah has an all over sunburn and can't hardly walk, sit or stand. Savannah normally just tans, but she is using a medicine on her face for keratosis pilaris that makes her skin sunburn easy. She has sunburn blisters on her face and is in pain. This is her first sunburn and I don't think she will ever forget to put on sunblock again.



Now if that weren't fun enough. The kids started school today. Hannah has homework already and is missing the summer already. Savannah has some teachers that may be mean, (the verdict isn't out yet) but she got the PE coach she wanted and she can socialize with her friends, so she is mostly happy for now. Zachary started the 4th grade and is unhappy that summer is over. His best friend is in his class, so he is happy with that, but he had homework today and he has to right a five paragraph essay tomorrow. ( Not his favorite thing to do)



So now I am back to carpool lines, band competitions, football games, soccer practice and games, turning my bank account over to the Williamson County public school system, and kids that are sunburned and are unhappy that summer is over! Are we having fun yet?

I can't wait to get Raven started! You made it look so good, I think we'll just jump right on in...oh yeah, it's easier with a kindergartner who has been waiting to start school since she was 3. The kids are growing up so quick. They are beautiful, sunburns and all. Give 'em a hug for me!

It's weird to think that they're all in school again. Summer seemed like it was going to last forever. Now it's just me and Taylor here all day at my parents... it's almost TOO quiet!
