happy new school year!

last friday was locker decoration day at the middle school.
usually the boys are finished in 5 minutes.
usually the girls are finished after 5 boxes are unloaded, wallpaper is hung, magnets are arranged and then rearranged, pictures are placed, mirrors are at eye level and sometimes even a chandelier has to be installed.
i'm not joking.
 ella-belle is always a good helper, but when her assistance is not needed, she likes to hide in the empty lockers.

 the finished product!
 aftie had a back to school gathering that evening with some of her cute friends.
they had pizza, played on the trampoline, ate ice cream, decorated clipboards and made bracelets.
 and in preparation for the new year, dad suggested the girls have their nails done.
good thing.
they haven't been clipped once this summer!

 and here are the two beauties the first day back to school.
aftie is now a 6th grader!
and ella is a 3rd grader!
(ella was concerned she might look too sparkly with
a sparkly headband, sparkly belt and sparkly shoes!
no way!)
ella and her new teacher, mrs. parsons!
"she's sooooo nice!", said ella.
happy school year!!!
