Back-2-School: The Interview

Practical Scrapper Kim Ryden here.  Well it's Back to School time and my oldest kiddo was finally able to have her first day of preschool!  She was SO excited! 
 
Of course as a scrapbooker, I had to do the semi-professional photographer thing and have a mini photo shoot before we got in the car.  I have to have some really cute pictures to scrapbook later, right?!
 
 
 
Since this is her first "First Day of School" picture, I got to start traditions!  And one of them was taking a ton of pictures of her and her younger brother (although he didn't make this layout for her school years book).

Another tradition will be to record how excited she was about the first day and what she chose as her backpack and lunch box...this year it was all Hello Kitty!

And the last tradition will be to ask Brooke some questions so that I can record her answers as she grows.  I plan to ask her the same questions each year to she how she grows and changes over time!

Here are the pictures up close.  I use www.picmonkey.com to edit them and add text easily.

And here are her interview questions and answers.
 
Remember that it's never too late to start this.  Any time you start, it will still be fun to look back on in a few years to see how your children have changed and grown.  And even if you didn't catch them on the first day of school...do it now...you don't want to miss these moments!
 
Hope you are having fun now that your kids are back in school and you are getting a few extra moments in your craft room!
