Back to School: 2024 Edition


2024 Back to School = 8th and 11th grades for our kiddos! 

 Luke is a junior and has a full load of AP classes at his high school.  He is also taking college courses this year online through the dual enrollment program with our school district, and he's loving the freedom of driving himself to school:



This is Leah's last year of middle school, and she is Big Man on Campus this fall.  She seems excited about her teachers and having friends in classes with her, and we lucked out with the bus route this year so she is riding it in the morning and afternoons.  This is a game changer for me, as hours of my life are spent weekly in carpool lines some years:

The first week of school was filled with marching band rehearsals and the first home football game of the season.  The weather prevented the Viking Band from performing their halftime show, but they played pregame and entertained everyone with Stand Tunes throughout the game.

Wake Forest kicked off their football season this week, too, and Mark and I cheered on the Demon Deacons and had a fun date night at the game:


It is such a fun, busy time of year for our family.  Hooray for Back to School!
