All good things, especially summer, must come to an end and this was Ben Jane and the tree as we approached the first day of school. Jane posed as did my cell phone and I took this self portrait before Jane and Ben posed at the tree for first day of school pictures as Suzanne peered from inside the doorway and then Ben posed alone at the tree before we headed to Kaylen's grandfather's house where Michael McKeon and Adele Hagadorn greeted us as Kaylen, Rosie, Jane and Lucy posed and after a picture of the infamous recycling we took the traditional pictures of Kaylen, Rosie, Jane and Lucy in front of the house which has now been sold since there will be no more first days of school for this group

Next, I returned to the middle school bus stop where Ben and Nate and Ben, William and Nate posed and then we saw their shoes as Ben and Nate amused each other as the Klockenbrinks prepared to cross and I caught Tony and Stephanie and then Jena, Stephanie, and Tony and the Sheas before the bus approached and Ben got on the bus with the driver to start the day.

Later that day when we did our Staples excursion and ran into the Manley family.
