First Day of School: 2006

Veronica is blowing kisses as the other girls strike their best pose.
The first day of school at the YD house is always filled with excitement, anticipation and quite a bit of whining and screaming (usually by Lauren). This year was no exception.

The excitement meant no one had to be dragged out of their bed. They were all up a little after 6 a.m.

The anticipation was for a YD tradition on the first day of school: Aunt Dee-Dee bringing donuts. Unfortunately, she was running a little late this morning.

The whining and screaming was brought on by Lauren (of course), who complained that her "tummy hurt." (Maybe you should have eaten some breakfast, Lauren.)

We've been waiting for years for Julia to hold this sign.
Emily knows the drill: hold the sign and smile.
When you have to leave for school by 7 a.m., it can still be a little dark out, as Lauren's picture shows.
Julia tried to clue in Veronica on what all the to-do was about this morning.
Mom was capturing all of Lauren's complaining on video.
