Back To School 2011

Back to school. Back to school, to prove to Dad that I'm not a fool. I got my lunch packed up, my boots tied tight, I hope I don't get in a fight. Oh! Back to school... back to school... back to school. Well, here goes nothing.

Jake Taylor Dixon

Age: 16 years, 10 months

School: Boulder Creek High School

Grade: Junior

Class of 2013

Mood: Sleepy but Excited!

 Took a shower the night before so he could sleep in later (until about 6:40 am)

,

Gotta be honest, I questioned his choice of 1st day outfits.  But he's a junior.  And, if I remember correctly, my junior year is best described as "care free".  I didn't care.  As a junior, I was settled into high school and just had fun.  I am assuming he is experiencing the same Junior-itis! (This might explain why he was cramming to finish his A/P summer assignments last night!)

(as you might imagine, he was not about having a "Back to school" photo shoot.  But I did get this nice one of him finishing off the Poptart on his cheek.  Cute and ready to rule the world!

Tanner Dixon

Age: 15 years, 12 days

School: Boulder Creek High School

Grade: Freshman

Class of 2015

Mood: Tired, a bit ornery, but hopefully excited!

Tanner, who used to be my "early bird", has taken a real shine to sleep this summer. Waking up was not an easy task for him today.

Getting it together.  I am guessing he was a little nervous, as he was heli-ornery. Definitely not time to push for a picture. Maybe after school (or that was what Taylor said...) 

I hope he has an awesome year and makes tons of friends.  Tanner is a funny, cute, great guy.  He is so shy, not everyone knows that.  I hope this year, people get to know him cuz they will love him!  He Rocks.

Trevor Dixon

Age: 13 years, 7 days

School:Anthem School

Grade: 7th

Class of 2017

Mood: Super excited and ready go (although last night he kept telling me otherwise)!

 He slept hard, but wok up immediately at 7:00 and took a shower by 7:30, even though he didn't have to leave until 8:30.

 Trevor, being Trevor, was willing to pose for a back to school photo shoot, which I appreciate.

He's in 7th grade (count the fingers!)

 After a good breakfast of peanut butter-chocolate chip granola bars and orange juice.

 Locked and loaded...

Out of the car, and looking forward at a great year!

 Off to Conquer the 7th grade! 

Good Luck Guys!  Hope you have a great year!.

The house is super quiet - but that's not too different as it was quiet until about noon all summer. They all slept in.  Hopefully I will get a chance to pick up before they get home, cuz this house is a MESS and I doubt they will feel much like chores when they walk in from their first day
