Blaine's First Day of School

It is a big year for us. Evan starts kindergarden, Dillon gets baptised, Tyler gets the preisthood and Blaine starts school.
Here is a cute pic of Blaine before he left for his first day at CU Denver. He remembered his backpack and snack and pen and pencil and paper. He worried that people would think he brought a chisel and tablets while they had laptops. I told him he's not THAT old.
It will be a loonnnggg two years but we are so happy that he has chosen to finish school! Dillon wrote him a very nice note in church Sunday. It went something like...
To: Dad
I am glad you are my dad. I am proud of you for going to college. I know you will be good in college.
Love, Dillon
I am proud, too! Always looking forward to the next great adventure! Guess I gotta come up with something big to do this year so I am not left out! Any suggestions?

O' Blaine, you are so rad.
We love you and are super proud of you and excited for you.
You're a good piano mover too.

Go Blaine! Be sure to bring your chalk with your individual chalk board! :-)

Aww. Blaine looks like such a big boy heading off on his first day of school. What a grown up! Oh, wait...
I think it's great you're headed back Blaine! Studying business, right? Someday I'm going back to school again. I'll probably be old and gray, but I am going. Charity, this year you can plan to see us! Shall we come to Colorado or do you want to come here? :o)

Hey - If Blaine can go back to school, you can be a cheerleader again. I know you both like those little skirts and pom-poms! (Maybe just for the "home team")

Hey, Blaine! Have a great time in school. (I just LOVE all that book-learnin' stuff!) You're a smart guy, and a great husband and dad. You guys deserve the BEST!
