First Day of School

Although we started homeschooling two weeks ago, I am just now taking the first day of school pictures.  (Last year, I didn't take any at all!)  My kids are holding up fingers to show what grade they are in.

Polar Bear is an 8th grader (green pencils)

Winger is also an 8th grader (doesn't like his orange pencils engraved with his name -- for some reason)

And Dorito is an 11th grader.

They also made their own name tags this week, which are helpful since we switch seating assignments every year.  I supplied the ideas and the scrapbooking stickers...  which works out well since I don't scrapbook.

Polar Bear collects all things "Ben Franklin" as you can see on his desk.
