Let Freedom (and the bell) Ring!!

Today was a glorious day for The Fontana household...school began!

Gabbie was very excited to be back with her friends. All summer she lamented on how bored she was and how she couldn't wait for school to start so she could see all her friends. However, she was not so happy when I asked her to pose for the traditional first day of school photo. Her exact words were "This is so lame"!
Lame or not, you have a mother that documents every event, so smile!Corbin made fast friends at a 5th grade social last week so he was looking forward to getting in thick with all of them. I am in constant awe of his enthusiasm to meet new people and forge friendships quickly. That trait will serve him well in years to come.

Doesn't he look so precious in his uniform?

As for mom...well, she hit the gym, took the dogs with her on a bike ride and had dinner cooked by noon. And she was able to hear herself think until 3:05 pm!
