First Day of School

This year Bailey is a 5th grader.  Thursday night was Back to School Night.  To put a fun spin on the evening, there was a treasure hunt where we went to her classroom to meet her teacher and also to other rooms throughout the school to meet other teachers and staff.  Walking through the halls of Van Allen was a little bittersweet this time since we both realized this was going to be her last year in elementary school.  We're both looking forward to another great year filled with learning, friendships and new adventures.
This summer I spent a lot of time digging through old photos.  Here are a couple other Back to School memories from my First Days of School.
 1984
 1983
 1987
1991
1992: A very special surprise on my first day of school my senior year was a new car.  Out with the LTD and in with the Bobcat.
