I liked Tip Junkie on Facebook! I love the “she gets on the bus for the 1st time” t-shirt!
Last year we just held up a sign that stated the grade my girls would be starting. It was fun to document, but I LOVE the idea of putting all of the personal info into the photo too : favorite song, favorite food, etc. Such a great idea!!!
I just liked Cherokee on FB…and voted for the book with the apple photo. I think it is a really beautiful (not to mention easy) photo that captures the nostalgia that I enjoy.
I love the different ideas….First day of school mornings are so hectic, it’s really nice to have practical ideas on taking photos we can treasure. I love being prepared, and this will take the stress out of capturing the perfect “back to school” memory!
Thanks for always having the best ideas:)
