Allena posted a "back to school" survey a few weeks ago (about a month ago now). In honour of the first full week of school happening this week, I thought you might enjoy hearing from the kids. You can read Allena's post here. I also interspersed some back to school pictures throughout the years for your enjoyment as not every first day of school picture made it onto the blog :)
