As is tradition here is Coleen's First Day back to School photo and a side-by-side comparison to last years photo.





First day of 5th grade - Wow her last year in Grade School.  Where has time gone.

This year on the left - Last year on the right.

Have a great school year!

  1. They change a lot in a year don't they? We still have another almost 2 weeks before school starts. It's late this year!

  14. What a wonderful composite.

    We have first days since forever but getting them all in one place would be a year's task.

  31. I adore first day of school photos!! And I love seeing the progression through the years. The collage you chose is fantastic and I think I'll try that in a few more years when Peanut is in 5th grade. She looks so much more "grown up" this year than last. Where does the time go? Guess we better enjoy while we can. xo
