First Day Pictures
I can remember my mom taking pictures for the first day of school while I was in elementary school. There weren’t any fancy papers or chalkboards stating what grade I was in because those have only really just become popular with Pinterest.
Each year I make back to school a little special by having a theme set in place. With that, I decorate a little in our dining room with a banner and a few other little things. Last year we did a Harry Potter theme.
Breakfast, Lunch, and Snacks
Moms and dads have gotten busier and busier. Between their own jobs, keeping the house, and running kids to a million extra-curricular activities it seems like everyone is always on the go.
We love make-ahead meals in our house. From egg cups that I make on Sunday for a week of breakfasts or pizza muffins for a fun lunch, making things ahead of time is a real time-saver in the long run.
