It's Back to School

When it comes to Back to School time parents fall into 2 categories. Either happy hence the commercial -"the most wonderful time of the year" or sad. I must admit, I fall into the sad category here. Don't get me wrong, it is exciting for D to meet his old friends and some new ones too. But I always have good summers home with him and it is really lonely for me on the first day at school, when I stay home by myself. Last night we remembered all of our summer events this year. It was such a great summer! A fantastic summer. But now onto a new day!!!. Here is D all decked out for the first day. (That is not an earring, so don't get scared. It is tape on the board.) I wish I could post the first day of kindergarden and then post this picture, I cannot believe how grown up he is looking and acting. Sigh !!!! Well off to get a nice hot chocolate because it is only 12C here!

Our Next Wipe Out Contestant.

I am sure most of you have watched the show wipe out. Well here at our local pool they have the inflatables out for public swim. It really is a hoot to see everyone try their best and fall into the water.

Mr. Photography tried his best at conquering this beast. It was a very difficult one to do. Not to many made it to the end. To top things off, the lifeguard sprays water on it, to make it more slippery.

Ahhh. Good try D!
