the first day of school & s'mores pancakes

well that's it, summer vacation has officially come to an end.  

the new school year has started, backpacks have been purchased and our bus routes determined.  

and just like that the days are once again my own.

#hallelujah

don't get me wrong summer was great.  we took a family road trip, played golf, moved into our dream home, and i watched my beautiful sister marry her best friend.  but as much fun as it all was, everyone was ready for school, especially the kids.

a new school year and a new beginning, means a new pancake recipe.

summer = s'mores

school = pancakes

so first day of school = s'more pancakes

 (side note i really should be a math teacher)
