We had a special back to school dinner (thanks to Nie- such a great way to make going back to school special for the kids) in honor of Chloe's first day tomorrow and Porter's next Tuesday.
Ours was less fancy...
we made some cheesestick pencils...
We also had homemade mac & cheese (thanks to Paula Deen, y'all!!), veggies, pencils, rolls, Kool-Aid, and brownies for dessert.
Nothin' too fancy, just some of the kids' faves.
I know what you're thinking...
...I should be a model, right?? haha
We ate and talked about school, food, Grandma Kitty, and probably some things that shouldn't be discussed at the dinner table...
...which brought on this face...
We all enjoyed the food...
...and the silliness.
We're glad to have had our first annual family back to school dinner. We're excited (and some of us (me) are scared) about school starting, and can't wait 'til tomorrow.
