School's IN!

Hey guys! Alright, first off we're sorry that things didn't get done when we said they'd be, this whole week erupted! LOL, isn't that how it always goes? BUT, we did get the kit done, however, we abandoned the other one, as we were not happy with it. But, we got a first day of school kit up for you today.... it was inspired by Sarah Henderson... her big boy, Garret was off to his very first day of school... remember that day? It was a looong time ago for most of us, I'll bet. All I remember is I got so excited about having a new pack of crayons to take to school with me, they were the giant ones, maybe came in a pack of 8... hehe:). If you download, please leave some love, it does make our day, and feedback is more than welcome:) (If there is any confusion on the terms of use, we have posted the TOU below the preview, neither of which are included in the zip file.) We hope your little ones had an outstanding very first day of school.
