Back to School Celebration!

The evening before school started, I hosted a Back to School Celebration for our little family. Since both boys will be starting new chapters in their lives (B to Kindergarten and E to Preschool) I thought a grand celebration was in order.

I made Texas Sheetcake.

I set the dinner table with our china, silver, and crystal.

I made each boy their own special crown.


We enjoyed a feast of Spaghetti and homemade garlic bread.

We devoted the entire dinner conversation to school related topics. We wanted to know about their plans at their new schools, what they were looking forward to most, and what they were nervous about. I tried to discuss goals for the year, but that went over their heads. Perhaps next year.

It was a great evening and the boys really enjoyed the celebration in their honor as well as getting to have dessert!

You're the best, Kel! What a great idea. :) That sheetcake looks amazing. I might have to make one of those.
