Back To School

Larissa's first day of school.  Poor Larissa she is still eagerly awaiting her school clothes which we ordered more than a month ago.  

Hard to believe this is our last year here at Yokota.  A new school year has fast approached us and the kids are already talking about who is leaving and who is staying.  Renie has made many friends here, so adjusting to a new school next year will be challenging.  As we know, it is all part of military life and these kids are resilient enough to handle such challenges.  Renie's attire today was for dress up Thursdays.  Tradition here at Yokota is that all football players have to dress in their Sunday's best every Thursday.  They wear their jersey's on Fridays.  He looked so handsome this morning, I just had to take a picture.  He has grown so much this year and is has become a grounded fine young man.  My neighbor complemented on how he offered to assist her with her groceries one afternoon.  Raising teenagers these days is not easy.  We are truely blessed.  Tomorrow our JV and Varsity team will play Camp Zama here at home.  Go Panthers!
