DAWSON'S FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL






Today was Dawson's first day of second grade!!! He said he had a great day but it was very very hot!!! The school district has decided to close all of the schools early tomorrow and Friday due to the heat emergency that's been issued. It's supposed to be soo hot that it will feel like it's 105 degrees!!! YIKES!!! Dawson's school has always required the kids to bring a water bottle to school during the hot months so that helps me not worry too much cause I know he's getting fluids. He takes a water bottle every single day.
I started a tradition way back when Cam started Kindergarten that every year on the first day of school I take the boys out for icecream after school. They loved it and Daws looked forward to it all day! ha ha It was strange not to have Cam with us though. Here are some pics I took of his day.

ha ha I know! It was too hot to wear socks and sneakers so he wore his sandals.

He asked if he could have a large cone and I figured, what the heck! ha ha
