First Day of School! Really? Already?

Ok, so whoever chose August 9th as the day to start school, let's vote him out! Come on, the rest of the country still has at least 2 weeks of more summer! Well, we had no choice but to buck it up and give in to the system.

Nick is starting his Junior year at GSMST (Gwinnett School of Math, Science, and Technology). His school is in Lawrenceville - about 20 minutes from our home. His first period starts at 7am. Since his carpool leaves at 6:15am, he had to settle for "homestudy" seminary. We hear it's a lot more work than "early morning" seminary. We'll see how it goes! Here's Nick ready to go:

Notice it's still dark outside!

For those that can't read his shirt, it says "I KNOW KARATE, and like 2 other Japanese words."

Megan is starting 7th grade at North Gwinnett Middle School. She catches the bus at 8:30am, a much more decent hour. She is growing up so fast! What a doll!
