OMG - We have a middle schooler already!

Casey is totally enjoying every day of middle school as long as he makes sure his shorts cover his knees each and every morning! Soooo weird, it must be a middle school thing? I guess it's only cool to wear those longer type shorts and it's so funny to see him do his little test to make sure they don't creep up on him. Someday he'll realize that his mom is a professional shopper and only buys what is in style! He's made a bunch of friends who sit outside the house every morning and wait for him so they can all walk to school together. Just last week he went to his first school dance....the Pumpkin Bash! And as I was told SEVERAL times by him, it was not necessary to go to the dance with a girl. He went with a group of friends and had a blast! He even called us halfway into the dance just to check in and to let us know what a great time he was having. Not sure if he was calling to calm my nerves or if he was nervous himself. Or it could of been he just thought he was a cool kid with a cell phone? We'll never know for sure!
