The last first day of elementary school for Avery and Emerson. The next first day where all three girls will be together at the same school will be in four years. We have been so fortunate to have all three girls at the same school for five years! I thought I might shed a tear or two at the bus stop, but nope!
Avery confident in her stylish jumper.

Emerson confident in her stylish dress.

Harper in her soccer shorts…wasn’t the planned outfit, but the one that she felt confident in.

All three of my girls!

The annual bus stop breakfast. My girls are always so excited for it, yet too nervous to truly eat much.
Wow, how the group has changed over the years!

The non-Oakton students joined the breakfast too!

The 6th graders – they think they are so cool!


The morning bus ride was a bit delayed due to a new first grade neighbor with the first day jitters. The afternoon bus ride was delayed as well due to a double back bus route. It was a long first day. The girls came off the bus happy and ready for day two!
