Who's Ready?


Who is ready for school? I'm not! Although they give you like 3 months for vacation it goes by way too fast. Summer's almost over, and now freedom is too! Don't get me wrong, I am SO excited for school... since I am going to middle school! I will be going to Reach Academy in Roseville, and all my other sisters will be going to Koepsell! {Where I went since Kindergarten up to 5th Grade!} I am really sad that I am leaving the school that I grew up in, not to mention all my friends that are going to different middle schools. But I am really excited to go to middle school that one of my BFF goes to! She is a grade ahead of me, but at least I know someone that goes to this school.

Also, we have to wear uniforms! I am really excited about that, I went shopping the other day for what we need... the uniforms are actually pretty strict. You HAVE to wear khaki bottoms, and a navy shirt. The shirt has to have a collar and if the bottoms have a belt strap there has to be a belt. On Friday you can wear a red shirt if you want. The shoes have to be loafers or slip-on shoes that are black, brown or burgundy. You can also wear sweaters, but they also have to be certain colors. I think wearing uniforms are easy, because you know what you are going to wear the next morning!

We just went school supply shopping the other day. Which, I think is a lot of fun! I don't know why, but I think it is! This year, we are going to make our own pencil cases! We picked out our fabric and our zipper color already, and hopefully we will start and finish them today. Lil and I are also making our binder covers! Mine has tons of underwater animals, and I guess an underwater theme too! Lillian has ice skating stuff on hers. I am just so excited for school! But then again, it is nice to sleep in till 10:00 every morning. {Like I have been!}
