It doesn't happen often, but yesterday was both my birthday and the first day of school. As is usually the case the first day was hot. Oddly enough, this occurred despite a cool summer. I always taught in a hot room, even in schools where there was air conditioning in sections. This was my lot. The weather always seemed to change by the second week, however.
Shauna brought the kids over and we took a few pics and saw them onto the bus. Then, she took the old folks out to breakfast. With the high heat, Sue and I lay low for the rest of the day, especially in late afternoon when it began to pour.
We have been watching the US Open, and our various Canadians have all been eliminated. They didn't quite meet expectations but fourth round for both Bouchard and Raonic isn't too shabby.

I love the "back to school" pics.
And, you, Sue & the grands certainly make a colorful (that's colourful for you...) portrait.
Cheers--and happy birthday, again.
They look like turtles with outsized shells, poor little guys. They also look splendid and happy. That's a great shot of the four of you, especially of Cuppa.
such cuties! and happy birthday to you!!
Many Happy returns. They look a lot happier than I ever did at the thought of school.
Lovely family, thanks for sharing!
Yay for the start of school. Love these pictures, and remembering how they looked a few years ago when your granddaughter started her very first day of school. Looking like it's routine, now!

I hope your birthday was a good one. What a very nice picture of you and Sue with Danica and JJ.
Seeing photos of your grands is usually a thing of amazement at how big they already are, but the shots with you in it were even more so! They are so tall already! Doesn't time fly?
Oh, and happy belated birthday!
