First Day of School

Today is the First Day of School here.  As is my tradition here are Coleen's back to school photos.
 
She's going into the 7th Grade this year.
 
Here is the Side by Side Comparison from 6th Grade to 7th Grade
 
 

 
I had her wear her hair long for the first pictures but this is how she wanted to wear it to school so I took 2 different photos.
 
 
Check out the detail of her pants:
 



Finally the Back Pack shot:



Busy year ahead for her.  She is taking Volley Ball again this year so her school day will be from 8:05 am  until 5:00pm. - That's a long day so I'm sure she'll be tuckered out by the end of the day.

  1. That is a really long day but if part of it is fun like volleyball it should be okay all kids should go to school that long and it would keep them out of mischief. She doesn't look like she's much taller than she was in the 6th grade how tall is she. Her hair is beautiful

  4. Our first day back is on the 5th. Today we are celebrating my son's 12th birthday who will also be in Grade 7 this year.
    I take photos on the first day as well, and I also make them hold up their fingers. Not too sure what I'll do when they hit grades 11 and 12.
    Have a great first day Coleen! But, how could you not in pants as awesome as those?!!!

  7. A year and different hair style realy makes a difference.

  8. I wish I'd had the foresight to have the annual back to school photos, we were always too busy trying to find things on that first morning, backpacks, sports shoes, lunches etc My kids loved being at an American school as they didn't have to wear school uniform, otherwise they were always in a strict uniform. Those pants are wicked - or am I showing my age now?!
    Hope the school year goes well!

  11. Coleen is a beautiful name and she is a beautiful young lady. She will have a busy year for sure. I debated whether to name my only daughter Coleen or Kathren and decided on Kathren.

  19. I love first day of school pics. And I love that she still lets you do that as a seventh grade teenager! The sugar skulls are a fun print....I see a lot of them when we visit our youngest daughter in Florida. The history behind them is very interesting. Here's to hoping she has a stellar year!
