Today was the First "Official Day" of school for my boys and I.
~~~
As is our custom,
the 1st day of school is spent here...
~~We took our books~~
Really, we did.
We started some reading,
worked in our Nature Journals,
and wrote in our Composition Books.
Of course we kicked our shoes off for Gym Class.
The Teachers even got to jump into the lake for a 1.5km swim.
Water like glass.
Surrounded by leaves turning color under a cloudless sky.
I think that the first day back to school
~is one of our favorite days of the year.

Dawn your photos are amazing! I love the clarity and vivid color. What a fun first day of school, I only wish my first day back tomorrow would be half as much fun... but it won't be, that much I'm sure of! lol
